WordPress fans, it’s here: the first beta of WordPress 3.0 has been released.
In a late-night announcement Jane Wells, the UX lead at Automattic (the parent company of WordPress.com), laid out some of the many new features that are featured in version 3.0 beta of the popular blogging software. The first thing she points out is a new custom menus system, which she makes clear “is not quite finished.”
The big announcement of this release though is the merger of WordPress and WordPress MU (multi-user), a fork of WordPress that allows multiple blogs to be operated from one installation. In WordPress 3.0, these two are fully merged, although you should probably read the instructions before taking this feature out for a test drive.
There are other changes to the UI and interface, including the addition of a new default theme (Twenty Ten) and custom post type functionality improvements.
If you’re brave, you can download the update and take it for a test drive for yourself. If you do, let us know what you think of the newest build of WordPress in the comments.
Download the WordPress 3.0 Beta 1 now!
