First Look at Wordpress 2.7
Saturday, October 18th, 2008 by Jonathan LauThe interface for Wordpress 2.7 has finally been released today after months of waiting!
One of the goals of Wordpress 2.7 was to reduce the necessity to load new screens just to access sub-navigation menus. The Wordpress team has explained how the menu system will work.
Each section header has three parts: the icon on the left, the blue link text, and the area to the right where an expansion arrow appears on hover or in expanded state. You can see that the arrow is contained in a small segment of the header, similar to the way the favorites menu is structured. If you click on this segment, the menu will expand to show the choices in that section. Click again to close the menu. Click on the blue link text and you will go directly to the screen for the first choice in that section, where the section menu will be opened to show you the other section choices. Double-click on the section icon and the menu will close horizontally, leaving the icon list visible. In this state, hovering over the icons will display the menus for each section, so you’re still only a click away from most screens. Double-click on an icon when the menu is closed this way and it will take you to the first screen in that section. The small arrows attached to the dividing lines between menu groups will also act as open/close toggles for using the horizontal collapse/expand function.
The dashboard has also been revamped and is now more useful and relevant to editors and administrators.
Wordpress 2.7 is scheduled to be released on the 10th of November 2008.

Hi Jonathan,
I do not share web developers euphoria on the first look of 2.7
Why am I not jubilant?
I do not think version 2.7 is going to make difference and help fulfill my
REQUIREMENTS OF WEB SITE
FIRST
ASK DOCTOR – Form – on the home page (with captcha please) where visitors can post health problems. On receiving the queries in my email, I shall be sending personalized Expert Medical Opinion to the visitor.
NEXT – Navigation – ALL MEDICAL ARTICLES DISPLAYED by links
with title and excerpt (on hover at least).
It is more than a fortnight and I will have to keep searching at the Word Press docs, plugins, extensions, blogs, widgets, w3schools for this.
I do not think 2.7 helps in this respect.
I will greatly appreciate if you do suggest where I can get features to meet my above REQUIREMENTS.

I don’t mean to be too in your face, but I’m not sure I agree with this. Anyhow, thanks for sharing and I think I’ll come to this blog more often.

Hi Max,
I received a mail from Author: Cecelia Mccray
I do not mean offense at Jonathan’s article.
I wished to communicate that I have not got a satisfactory ‘contact form’ with captcha for my homepage at word press.
Regards,
Dr. Ashok Koparday

Hi, I wish to let all of you bloggers / internet users find out about a brand new Search Engine called Braxea. Its pretty dam cool… It combines Google, Bing and Yahoo into one and even lets you search for videos on YouTube and News all over the net. Maybe this may end up being the new Google ?

What I need to know is why I should care? I mean, not to say that what youve obtained to say isnt critical, but I mean, its so generic. Everyones referring to this man. Give us some thing a lot more, anything that we can get behind so we can really feel as passionately about this as you do.

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. It is the old what goes around comes around routine. Did you acquired lots of links and I see lots of trackbacks??
