Wordpress 2.9 is out in the market with new features to it. Not one or two, a total of 5 new features! Here are those 5 new features of Wordpress 2.9 -
Image Optimizer Feature
Undo Delete Feature
Thumbnail Support Feature
Embedd using Oembed Option
Batch Plugin Updates Feature
Let’s look below at each option:
Image Optimizer:
Worpress 2.9 has an in-built Image editing option that lets you use a lot of Photoshop properties. Now for any type of Image editing, you don’t’ have to entirely depend on Photoshop or several other tools, Wordpress has a lot of those features – not all though. With Image Optimizer in Wordpress, things are really going to be easier for anybody using Wordpress.
Undo Delete Option:
Something that can be retrieved after loosing is always a great option to have. Wordpress 2.9 too has added Wordpress undo delete option that lets one recover any post, draft, comment…that got erased by mistake. Isn’t that cool?
Thumbnail Support Option:
This may not be very clear to assimilate. A video tutorial of Thumbnail support would be a better mode to explain this feature. However, ‘Thumbnail Support’, in a nutshell, allows you to register ‘post thumbnail’ allowing you to attach images to your posts.
Embedd using Oembed Feature:
For long embedding a video to Wordpress has been a bit trouble. But not any more. Now there is Oembed support in Wordpress for easy video upload on YouTube, daily motion, Flickr, Qik, Scribd, Google Video, PolldDaddy Blip.tv, Hulu, Viddler, Revision3, Photobucket, Wordpress.tv and et al.
Batch Plugin Updtaes:
In just one click update multiple plugins! That makes it so much easier to manage your plugins.
This was all about new additions to Wordpress 2.9. For better understanding of how to make this work, wait until video tutorials are out.
