WordPress Version 2.2 is now available for download, with the following new features:
- ‘Widgets’ are now built in, no longer requiring a separate plugin.
- A new Blogger importer means that you can import all of your old posts and comments from Blogger just by entering your username & password. This is fantastic, and means that if you’d like to give WordPress a try it’s easier than ever. Remember too, that this doesn’t mean you have to delete your Blogger site, you can always go back. You won’t though
- It is now allegedly impossible to activate a plugin or edit a file that would break your blog.
- The code has been further optimised for speed, along with a range of other improvements under the hood.
- Full Atom support for those that want to use it.
Will I upgrade to 2.2? Oh yes, but I will wait a week or two as usual, just to see what falls out of it’s pockets when it’s given a good shake….
Remember that if your webhost offers ‘Fantastico’ under scripts, you can upgrade with one click. Just take a database and theme files backup first.
