I love WordPress 2.7. Finally, we have a WordPress control panel that makes sense, and hopefully will not change for a very long time. I’ve been using WordPress 2.7 on most of my blogs shortly after it came out a couple of months ago and it is what I’ve always hoped WordPress would eventually become.
With 2.7 all the menu options are on the left side of WordPress Dashboard, broken out into 11 separate categories with drop-down menu that reveal the sub-menu commands. Finally, pages and posts are broken out into their own distinctive menu areas.
With WordPress 2.5 I had numerous problems with the visual editor. It rarely revealed itself upon initial entry of the WordPress control panel. I would have to hit refresh several times to get it to open and switch out of HTML view. With CraigWhitley.com it never flipped out of HTML view, even after several installs. But fortunately, I hung in and waited for the unveiling of WordPress 2.7 and boy am I glad I did.
WordPress 2.7 is going to become every WordPress addicts friend before too long. I know there are those of you that likely have an older version of WordPress you still miss, but just use 2.7 a few times and I’m certain you’ll come around to agreeing with me that the many rich features and setup that WordPress has to offer make this version the best one ever.
Now, if we can just convince the thousands of contributors to this wonderful open source platform to leave the Dashboard and admin panel alone, I’m sure you’ll all agree that we’ll be happy campers for life. Adding new options are always welcomed, but it had become a royal pain in the ba-tootie each time I upgraded WordPress and found that nothing about the menu system or control panel was the same anymore.
Join me in telling these guys and gals that constantly work on updates to WordPress that “If it isn’t broke, don’t fix it.” IMHO the 2.5 Dashboard/Admin Panel was broke, and now it’s fixed. So leave it alone on the next update. As my Italian mother-in-law loves to say, “Enough already!”
