WordPress 2.6 was officially released yesterday so I upgraded this blog immediately. Here are some things you need to know about WordPress 2.6:
- New features in WordPress 2.6
- Plugin authors should read over PlanetOzh’s quick tutorial on how to make your WordPress plugins WordPress 2.6 compliant and upgrade their plugins. This shouldn’t take too long at all. I have already updated and released NowThen Photo Display and AJAX Force Comment Preview. As always, please notify me of any bugs that you run into via the comment form on these plugin pages.

Note: I am running a hacked version of Alex King’s Popularity Contest plugin. The original plugin was never 2.5 compatible so I assume that it would not be working for 2.6. Please see this post to download my working Popularity Contest plugin.
I would like to say congratulations and thank you to all WordPress developers that had a hand in this. You guys did a great job in releasing quality code 1 month ahead of schedule. Many bug fixes and awesome features that are just to die for.
