With all the recent traveling its been a few days since I had last synced my SVN wordpress install. I was pleasantly surprised to see some of the new features.
2 in particular caught my eye.
Quickedit function- Within your admin panel under your posts there is now a option for quickedit:
If you click this it pops up a box with all the little stuff you can edit on your post:
Reply to comments from admin
The other cool new feature was the ability to reply to comments directly from your administration panel:
Nice little Ajax box pops up:
Looking good!

But this beta version is still great, even in it’s testing phase. I’m looking forward to the release of the complete version

Hi, Congratulations to the site owner for this marvelous work you’ve done. It has lots of useful and interesting data.

Good afternoon! Sex Services information there. dating men. I am pleased to welcome you to its website, prostitutes Kiev – Fish. You can visit my blog.

Hi, outgoing posts there
through’s exchange for the intriguing word
October 22, 2008 at 5:45 am
“quick edit” is gone in latest almost beta freeze release of 2.7
October 9, 2008 at 6:08 am
It looks great! I will be switching from Blogger to WordPress soon. I recently found out that there is a way to make the same permalinks in WordPress as I had in Blogger so my search engine results won’t be affected.
October 9, 2008 at 4:58 am
I gonna try it
October 3, 2008 at 5:47 pm
Damn I just moved to blogger and then WP introduces some super cool features.
Lets hope blogger does something really good now.
October 3, 2008 at 7:50 am
Cool features…i still would like to see some tweaks on the image insertion so it doesn’t take 10 clicks to insert a few thumbs on a post.
October 2, 2008 at 6:37 pm
i looked into it and i like it a lot but you know how the plugins act up after an upgrade…
October 1, 2008 at 8:06 pm
that looks great, albeit it’s easy to use but since it’s in beta, ill retain my self not to use it temporarily till every bugs fixed correctly
October 1, 2008 at 3:09 am
Hmm, maybe i am the only one, but i am so used to the admin section that i hate when they change it, or the bahavior..
For weeks i always have to train myself to the new ways of working..
Maybe i dont appreciate the changes as much as you guys do, for me wordpress does since 2.5 what it should, most of the new stuff is in my opinion more cosmetical changes…
October 1, 2008 at 3:08 am
I would definitely upgrade to this version. I’m waiting for them launch this version officially.
September 30, 2008 at 10:41 pm
Oh O.K. So this is just BETA, cause it said I was still up to date on my blog. I will get it when it comes out of BETA (I don’t trust BETA stuff).
September 30, 2008 at 8:07 am
Thanks for the headup.
Now it looks like I am going to have to upgrade all me blogs that I maintain, everyone will want the latest version after this post.
September 30, 2008 at 4:41 am
That seriously looks great. But I only just upgraded to 2.6 version lol
September 29, 2008 at 6:59 pm
Its great that word press is releasing a new version, I can’t wait to check it out
September 29, 2008 at 11:34 am
I think the folks over at WordPress are doing a great job creating an easy to use interface for the everyday person to have a website that is great looking and sophisticated.
I love what the Open Source movement has done for the industry and everyone that uses it. I like to see the positive feedback from you…right on.
September 29, 2008 at 4:11 am
This is an excellent post , I’m grateful to you , thanks a lot .
September 28, 2008 at 11:30 pm
I’m still amazed that you’re running SVN nightly builds on a production site with as much traffic as yours… talk about bleeding edge. It’s almost as risky as the US banking / mortgage industry
WP 2.7 is looking rockingly good!
September 28, 2008 at 11:11 am
Okay, I love those features. Can’t wait until this is finally released to the public.
September 28, 2008 at 9:04 am
the only issue i see with all these features being added is the number of queries which will be required for display of each post … which might become an issue @ some point of time…
September 28, 2008 at 1:16 am
Its time i upgrade my blog too
September 30, 2008 at 4:50 am
You wish to upgrade the blog without 2.7 coming out already? Check again, its not out yet. lol
September 27, 2008 at 6:49 pm
I love wordpress, its great to see they are still actively adding great features to it!
September 30, 2008 at 4:50 am
I feel its like Vbulletin haha. I love them both for the addition of amazing features
September 27, 2008 at 5:23 pm
These features just keep getting better and better. Can’t wait for 2.7 to come out, looks like it is a lot more streamlined and will be easier to use as well.
September 27, 2008 at 11:45 am
Does 2.7 allow you to bulk move posts from category x to category z yet?
September 27, 2008 at 6:52 am
Can’t wait till the new version is released! It definitely looks really cool.
September 27, 2008 at 3:38 am
Wow great Info And Blog Thanks a Lot
September 26, 2008 at 11:20 pm
Wordpress keeps getting better,I like the new features I makes it simpler for administr.ators
September 26, 2008 at 9:24 pm
This is why wordpress is the best blogging platform
September 26, 2008 at 6:51 pm
Sick and slick. Gotta play with it over the weekend. I wonder how many new bugs are out there.
September 26, 2008 at 6:48 pm
wordpress ftw.
September 26, 2008 at 6:05 pm
Jeremy,
Thank you for spending some time with me after BlogWorld Expo 2008 and the interview you provided after the SuperPanel with John Chow.
I placed some BWE08 group photos of you and John Chow here:
http://donotreadthisblogunless.blogspot.com/
Your words of encouragement were thought provoking, and I will remember your kindness by sponsoring a worthy affiliate for #BWE2009, where I will share my success story with you.
Respectfully, Nicholas – ‘the video guy’ at BlogWorld Expo 2008
September 26, 2008 at 5:27 pm
That replying to comments is sweet. Usually wait a bit to upgrade. Nervous Nellie.
September 26, 2008 at 5:09 pm
I love quick edit. And I’ve had the reply to comments from admin panel with a plugin for a while now and it is so awesome.
September 26, 2008 at 3:44 pm
it look like a good idea. quick edit! why cant i think about it before, i rally dont know.
September 26, 2008 at 3:29 pm
Quick-edit is pretty nice.
September 26, 2008 at 3:31 pm
you said it man, SO nice!
September 26, 2008 at 2:51 pm
The new reply from the dashboard is great, can’t wait to see the rest
September 26, 2008 at 2:42 pm
These are the kind of updates I ave been waiting for. New features, not just bug fixes.
September 26, 2008 at 2:25 pm
I can’t wait for that update to come out….granted I have 9 sites I’ll have to update, I’m cool with that, that comment feature looks bad ass and I can’t wait to have that availability inside my admin panel.
Thanks for the heads up….
;D
September 27, 2008 at 5:07 am
There is a need to store patient. However, wait is short.
September 26, 2008 at 2:03 pm
I love the new reply from the dashboard feature! That is a big time saver for blogs with a ton of comments!
September 26, 2008 at 12:40 pm
thats pretty sweet… i need to look into how you are updating wp because doing it manually sucks.
September 26, 2008 at 2:45 pm
He said it… SVN… Subversion….
September 26, 2008 at 12:15 pm
That is pretty awesome. Time to upgrade.
September 26, 2008 at 11:33 am
the new features that comes with 2.7 are looking handy and useful.
September 26, 2008 at 10:47 am
Jeremy… i just LOVE WP …
Excellent team of developers… we use it as a CMS for all our websites and for the clients as well ..
September 26, 2008 at 10:39 am
I guess, I get to act surprised next week at WordCamp; when they give the WordPress 2.7 presentation.
Thanks to Shoe, I know most of the new features already
September 26, 2008 at 10:10 am
The reply in admin panel I’ve had for quite awhile, via plugin. That is a huge time saver, and glad to see that it’s native to WP in the new version.
I’d like to see a few other features I use plug-ins for become integrated, like some of the search features provided by yoast.com (great plugins by the way) where search results are highlighted, search suggest, etc.
September 26, 2008 at 9:52 am
I like the ability to respond to comments within your admin panel. Nice little timesaver and good update overall.
September 26, 2008 at 9:39 am
Reply to comments from admin is a great feature. It’s about time!
September 26, 2008 at 9:13 am
i will be using wp soon and will look for these new features.
thanks
September 26, 2008 at 9:03 am
what’s a good resource to upgrade with the wordpress SVN? any ideas?
September 26, 2008 at 8:56 am
Thanks for the previews and the screenshots, Shoe! Now you have me interested in subversion. Definitely drooling over the 2.7.
September 26, 2008 at 8:26 am
Yeah … I saw that too… These are some nice features
September 26, 2008 at 8:26 am
wow… the reply thing in the admin is awesome!
September 30, 2008 at 4:49 am
I know it is simply amazing. Wordpress is really getting better and better. Heaps improvement in 2.6!
I am excited.
September 26, 2008 at 8:06 am
I already use plugins that do this stuff for me. So not too excited about the new version. Just means another upgrade I’ll have to do and possibly encounter problems with my blog.
September 26, 2008 at 8:31 am
Hehehe! Yup I know what you mean about “encountering a problem” with your blog with this new version. That’s because new versions scrap out certain functions of the previous version. It happens a lot with Frameworks version updates.
September 26, 2008 at 2:44 pm
You must have some UbEr cuStom hacks on your wordpress
September 30, 2008 at 2:09 pm
On the bright side, it means that you won’t need to worry about upgrading the plugins or those plugins breaking future versions of WordPress. It may be a little hassle now, but in the long run, it can mean fewer.
September 26, 2008 at 8:03 am
All hail WordPress!
September 26, 2008 at 7:58 am
That’s going to be really handy. I love usability improvements that make my day easier.
September 26, 2008 at 7:42 am
Those are some good little additions…. I wish they’d add the time a post is supposed to publish on that Manage page, would make scheduling a tad easier.
September 26, 2008 at 7:18 am
gotta update mine too
September 26, 2008 at 10:11 am
I definitely recommend the Wordpress Auto-updater plugin. Huge time saver, gives the option to automatically backup and download all databases, and makes the whole process very smooth… about a 10 minute process (for me anyway) from start to finish.
September 26, 2008 at 11:35 am
when you don’t have only one blog to update, that plugin is life saving
September 28, 2008 at 9:01 am
I guess i need to get it very soon ..
September 30, 2008 at 4:48 am
Let it be out for us, gold version
September 26, 2008 at 7:03 am
Wow, new Wordpress! Impressive new feature, can’t wait for it to launch…! Hopefully this time it won’t mess up during upgrade.
September 26, 2008 at 7:01 am
It’s nice to see some really user-helpful features popping up for this next update. Reply to comments from the admin panel is very cool!
September 26, 2008 at 6:52 am
Wordpress continues to please us with new updates. This is a good thing. I love the stability and tradition. -))))))))
September 26, 2008 at 9:47 am
Yeah it’s hard to find software that is constantly under development these days. A lot of programs I use have been stagnant for years now.
September 26, 2008 at 10:49 am
That is why WP is growing at this speed…
September 26, 2008 at 6:51 am
This looks really really good, I love the reply to comments from admin.
September 26, 2008 at 6:47 am
Good stuff – those are pretty convenient features. Thanks for the heads up!
September 26, 2008 at 6:42 am
it looks great lets test it then we can says much about it. word press always rocks for bloging.
September 26, 2008 at 6:33 am
Even as a small time blogger those features are going to save me time. Now where did I put that autoupdate plugin…..
September 26, 2008 at 3:44 pm
Whenever you can save time the better. It is the rule of delegation. You don’t have to do everything….you just have to find people to do everything for you
October 9, 2008 at 1:56 pm
You can’t update to it yet. It’s not out as a stable release yet.
September 26, 2008 at 6:32 am
wordpress is working hard on usability, now they have to work on user interactions
September 26, 2008 at 6:32 am
Indeed, the quick-edit function is very handy. I’m using the extended-admin plugin, does basically the same thing.
September 26, 2008 at 9:48 am
I tried extended admin for a little while but I found a few little bugs and annoyances that kept me away. Hopefully wordpress will implement the feature flawlessly.
September 26, 2008 at 2:08 pm
I too look forward to this feature. I spend alot of time editing and anything that can help me save time makes me smile!
September 26, 2008 at 6:29 am
Hi Jeremy! Where did you get WP 2.7 version?
Usually WP notices when you have to update – I’ve got 2.6.2 version and still no announcement.
Thanx for comments anyways – it looks WP 2.7 will little bit more comprehensive!
September 27, 2008 at 9:24 pm
I think you have to be on their list of beta testers, which you can sign up for here:
http://wordpress.org/download/beta/
October 9, 2008 at 6:11 am
I’ll have to try it out. Thanks for posting this link Tushar!
September 26, 2008 at 6:27 am
Looks great, and I can’t wait until they release the version. Don’t you think it’s risky to use “beta” versions of wordpress?
September 26, 2008 at 9:43 am
I never install beta versions or even first releases. Because it’s a hassle to upgrade and there is almost always surely a newer patch within a few days of a new release.
September 26, 2008 at 11:36 am
any idea when they will release this version ? (so I can plan ahead the updating part and everything)
September 30, 2008 at 2:06 pm
It appears that Shoemoney is using the SVN version (i.e. bleeding edge, which isn’t even beta…it’s pre-pre-beta LOL).
As for the release, that’s currently set for some time in November 2008, but that’s if all things go well.
Ann-Kat
October 1, 2008 at 5:38 am
But this beta version is still great, even in it’s testing phase. I’m looking forward to the release of the complete version.
October 9, 2008 at 6:10 am
Thanks, I was wondering how Shoemoney got the update early. It’s amazing how fast WordPress has been in releasing updatews. They’ve been doing a fantastic job at it!
