Barely 2 months after upgrading blogjer’s wordpress version to 2.5.1 , and yet to fix my broken page, WordPress 2.6 is on it’s way to be released July 7th (tomorrow GMT-5/6) or July 14th.  What are they gonna released? (plus my little comment)

Version/revision saves a copy of a post every time you edit it, allows you to view (not edit) each of those copies (revisions), Shows forward (in time) diffs between any two revisions. – love this function especially for post with multiple authors

Add paging of Themes in Design panel

Word Count displayed when writing and editing posts and pages

Press This bookmarklet- cool!! i want this back

Add sorting to gallery


Export/import post excerpts

Theme Previewer- no longer need theme switcher plugin

Check (assigned) Categories at top Category box in Write/Manage Post

Show when a term is both a tag and a category – for SEO purpose??

Wider Profile fields

TinyMCE 3.1

Two categories can have sub-categories with the same name – ok I want this too

Via jwebdev, I got to know these new features described in more detail manner, thanks!!

Out of all these new features, I hope that the permalink bug for wordpress page introduced on WordPress 2.5 will be fixed.  I’m not interested to add index.php to my current permalink structure (/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/) if I want to stick with it. It made it looks rather long (and ugly)
