RSS FeedsWordPress 2.7 "Coltrane"
Dec 11, 2008
As it always happens when I am trying to update my WordPress installation I almost lost a blog while upgrading to WordPress 2.7. I’m generally one of the last people to upgrade my WordPress installations, it’s just that today when I was going through the various twitter notifications I noticed some body mentioning WordPress 2.7 so I thought, well, this time I shouldn’t get so late.
It is always advised that you take full backup of your existing blog before upgrading to a newer version; anything can go wrong and you can lose years of hard work. But I haven’t taken my backups for more than 3-4 months.
The biggest surprise in WordPress 2.7 was the total overhaul of the dashboard interface. It really looks neat with crisp buttons and a spiffy layout. Here is the image of the dashboard of Writing Cave:
WordPress 2.7
It seems there are still many people who use the default editor of WordPress to publish blog posts. I haven’t used it for years. Even when there was no desktop editor available I used to prepare all my posts in my favorite word processor and then simply copy/paste the content into the editor. If you notice in the image I have encircled the part that lets you quickly post without ever having to leave the dashboard area. They have arranged all the important links at left. Another significant change that I have noticed is that they have brought back the comments to the dashboard as people had been missing this information on the dashboard.
There is a turbo link at the top bar and I wonder what it does. When I clicked on it, it asked me to do something, I did that, it processed a few hundred files on my computer and then I lost track.
I’m still to use all the features present in the latest WordPress 2.7 version. In fact, as usual, I will end up using a very few functions because I rarely log into the admit area; I publish all my blog posts using windows live writer.
Here are some WordPress 2.7 upgrade tips from Lorelle.
Another great overview of WordPress 2.7.

I hate how they update so often.
They need to just slow it down and get it right.
I left Wordpress over how often they forced users to update and how often those updates broke things.

Hey,
I’m with you on posting content writing to Word before dropping into Wordpress. I depend on Word’s spell check. Then I cut and past into some software to turn it into a unicode document, striped of all decoration and code. Then I post to WP. Makes life easier.
Kristi, I echo your sentiments on the bi-daily updates from Wordpress. Also, I can never remember where to look for them, and most I clearly don’t need.
All this said, where would we be without Wordpress? Fighting code like I did in the old days. I should show you some of my personal website I mangled in attempting to hard code them in the days before WYSIWYGs.
I’ve found I can focus on the content writing marathon far better if I hire an affordable guy to clean up the Wordpress updates I mess up and look over my work every few months or so. I’m happy to recommend some if you seek me out at the website I posted above. Or if that doesn’t show - IonLeap (dot) com
Kind Regards,

hate to sound like a nitpick, but your grammar is just…deplorable. I want to be interested in this, I really do. But it seems you spent so much time on the design (which, I will say, is amazing) that you forgot that people actually have to read your blog. Clean this up…PLEASE. It could be so much bigger if you just did some work.
