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!
