Falchion's Edge

…and the latest major version of WordPress blogging software (code name ‘Ella‘) was released.

And now The Edge has been upgraded to match! Heh, I just had some free time in the afternoon and I didn’t want to be neglecting the blog again, so a round of backing up and upgrading seemed perfect.

As with all the past versions of WordPress, I have had little problems with the upgrade. Only one plug-in got broken and not in a critical manner. That should be fixed soon enough once the plug-in author updates it to match.

Apart from the underlying enhances to the blogging engine and database, which I swear to learn much more about someday, there are few but major new features that have been added. Better control over the Blogroll and Categories is nice and all, but the big selling point for me is new editor…with SPELLCHECK.

…to me that deserves a whole new major number change to v3.0 instead of just v2.1 …

..which is just that sad really, but my spelling has never been a strong point. *Sigh* even my strengths have flaws. Keeps me humble I guess

The interface looks so much more pimping, here’s hoping that it helps get more creative juices going..
