I dont use any of the new features - are there any? I dont use that media thing. I type a post and click publish. The only thing I’m glad of is the updated admin interface - thats been a LONG time coming!

(Back again on FF2… sorry for the double post) If you’re using WP as a normal platform for blogging, then 2.5.1 is probably suitable for you. All the major complaints I’ve heard and read about that I share, as well, come from the fact that this version is less user-friendly and less practical, in terms of using it as an advanced CMS (ie. your site’s completely plugged in, you’re running multiple sidebars and not just 2 or 3, and you have multiple authors with multiple roles on your site). I’ve actually reverted back to 2.3.3, because I’ve had so many complaints, too, on my own site.

I couldnt disagree with him more. I think it looks great and enhances the wordpress experience. i can see where he is saying maybe they should have called it something like 3.0 but that is something little to me.

I upgraded to 2.5 and am staying there.

What are my thoughts? My thoughts are the post makes him come off sounding like a pompous ass who will lose readers over his hissy fit. There are things I don’t like in the new version but there are things I don’t like about every upgrade, except when i went from Windows Me to Win 2k. There was nothing I didn’t enjoy about that upgrade.

I think the biggest problem people are having whether they’ll admit it or not is they hate the new new color scheme, even more than they hate the widget page. The color scheme is easy enough to fix you can switch back to the classic in the user controls or like I did before I realized you could do that just crack open WP in Dreamweaver and edit the WP CSS

I don’t like 2.5 either and totally agree with Ray. They changed way too much!

I agree that it should’ve been version 3, but I think the software as a whole is an excellent improvement. I don’t know if I am a power user or not; probably not.
