WordPress 3.0

So the latest version of WordPress, 3.0 is here . This is not much of a surprise since we get new versions almost every month. But this release stands out as a much awaited release, since it has some major fresh features for a great user interface.

I will list out a few new features here:

1. The Installation registration page

The previous versions of WordPress had a major security hole as the admin username for the backend was automatically generated as “admin”.  Users had to create a new username for the admin and delete the “admin” from the database.

The previous versions of WordPress had a major security hole as the admin username for the backend was automatically generated as “admin”.  Users had to create a new username for the admin and delete the “admin” from the database.

The new released 3.0 covers that risk by giving an option for users to create their own username and password before the installation.

2. New welcome template

WordPress users would be very familiar with the blue drab default skin that came with the WordPress installation.

That has finally been removed and replaced by a new, fresh theme called the 2010 theme. As the name implies, they plan to have a new template every year.

This is a real refreshing sight, when compared to all the older versions of WordPress.

3. Link Shortener

This is a very helpful feature which enables us to generate short links for our articles (just like in twitter).

4. Individual Author templates

This allows us to have unique author page designs.  So each author can have his own template. It comes handy in case of multi author blogs.

5. Multi Site feature

The best feature by far, this allows us to manage number of blogs with just one admin. Imagine that you’re a web developer who wants to build and host your client’s blogs and sites — you can run hundreds of client sites under one WordPress installation.

So the new release in fact merges WordPress MU and the plain WordPress.

And finally here is the link to a more specified instructions on the new features. http://sixrevisions.com/wordpress/wordpress-3-0-guide/

So this is really the best version of all, and who knows, they might come back with an even more amazing one next month!
