WordPress 2.2 Released

May152007

WordPress 2.2 “Getz” is now official. I’ve listed some of the changes previously, but here’s another quick rundown:

  • Atom feeds updated to Atom 1.0
  • Preliminary support for Atom Publishing Protocol
  • Widgets are now supported in core
  • Protection against activating broken plugins
  • “Deactivate All Plugins” button. Sadly, my “Reactivate All Plugins” patch didn’t make it into this release. Hopefully you’ll see it in WP 2.3.
  • Improvements to comment management
  • Code optimizations and speedups
  • Future WYSIWYG support for the Safari browser
  • Post Preview moved into a popup window, rather than an iframe on the Write page
  • WordPress-specific XML-RPC API
  • JQuery support

You can find a list of changes for version 2.2 on the WordPress Trac site. Ready to sample the new hotness? Start downloading!
