WordPress 2.6 has just been released, and comes with a handful of very nice features.  They include:

  • Word count display below Save and Publish buttons
  • Theme pagination and a hot live preview feature
  • The number of plugin updates available is now shown in the Plugins tab
  • Ability to change the location of the wp-config.php file
  • Multiple plugin activate/deactivate; improved sorting
  • Admin page caching for faster speeds
  • Improved galleries
  • “Press This” bookmarklet for quick posting from anywhere on the web via your toolbar
  • Post revisioning
  • Drag-and-drop gallery sorting
  • Multiple checkbox selection (on Manage pages) using shift+click

I’m out of town right now, but I’ll update in a few days and let you know what I think.  If you load it on your blog, leave a comment and let us know what you think.
