Wordpress 2.2 is released!

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

Wordpress 2.2 has been released and contains some some welcome features including:

  • Wordpress Widgets
  • Full Atom support
  • AJAX’d comment editing
  • Speed optimisations

They mention WYSIWYG support for Safari in a future Wordpress version.

This is the first version to be released under the new 4 month release cycle. Having a 4 month release cycle for major versions means that the changes will be more incremental, which I welcome, as it means there is less potential for breakage during upgrades (although this has never been a problem for me yet).

Thank you to the Wordpress team for all your work. I’ll be upgrading once the K2 theme supports 2.2.

Wordpress caching plugin

Friday, April 27th, 2007

If you’re looking for a caching plugin for Wordpress to increase your blog’s traffic handling capabilities, look no further than WP-Cache. I’ve been using it for a couple of days and it’s working very well. Bring on a slashdotting ;)
