WordPress 3.2 released
Two WordPress releases in short time, that puts some pressure on system administrators and website owners. The new version introduces new system requirements that webmasters should make sure their server supports, before they upgrade. WordPress 3.2 requires as a minimum MySql 5.0.15 and PHP 5.2.4. That’s a big step from MySQL 4.1.2 and PHP 4.3.
WordPress 3.2 comes with a refreshed admin design, a full screen editor for distraction free blogging, a new default HTML5 theme and an extended admin bar.
There are other things, largely under the hood that will make webmasters happy. This includes faster page loading times, dropped support for Internet Explorer 6, additional performance and speed improvements and caching of admin dashboard widgets to reduce the site’s memory footprint.
Other features of the new WordPress 3.2 are HTML5 ready Twenty Eleven default team, new widgets management that is obviously faster than the previous version, and the new full screen feature, that will change your compose new post/page interface into an MS Word-like page. A quick tip though, you need to save your composition before exiting the full screen, or you’ll lose all of your hard work (sigh). Aside from the features I mentioned, WordPress claims the new update also includes 400 other features.
We have updated several blogs and the update went well without difficulties.
