So whats the news on Wordpress 2.5? I’m sure many wordpressers has gone over to wp.chrisjohnston.org and tested out the Wordpress 2.5 Demo. For those who found it hard to log in due the site being heavily hacked by someone of espanic nature, don’t frett becuase I got it all right here. Let me jump in and get started.
The login… Looks allot like the Wordpress.com setup don’t it? Nothing new there.

The next change, and the most predominant, are the colors and the “feel” of the backend. Look for yourself, not that bad. The dash offers easy buttons for instant posting. A few other blocks (not populated in this demo) are also in the dash, one by the likes of “Plugins”… possibly upcoming or released ones, or plugins you have already installed. RSS feeds for almost everything and all this in a well formed block layout.
In addition to the color changes, the layout of the navigation has been split up, the old position for the classics: Write, Manage, Design and Comments, then the more involved ones: Plugins, Users, Settings to the top right.
