Dougal Campbell's geek ramblings

WordPress, web development, and world domination.

WordPress 1.2 Beta

Oh, and speaking of WordPress, we have a new beta version out! WordPress 1.2 Beta is full of word pressing goodness, and it’s a part of this nutritious breakfast!

Those of you who keep track of such things, might wonder why we’re going from version 1.0.2 to version 1.2. What happened to version 1.1? Well, at some point during development, we had accomplished all of the 1.1 goals and had already begun working on features that we had planned for 1.2. So we decided to just keep going, and keep the version 1.2 label.

This latest release has a ton of new features, including sub-categories, custom fields, automatic thumbnail generation for images, and an improved admin interface. Plus the new plugin architecture will allow developers to create a whole new class of third-pary add-ins.
