WordPress updates often, adding features and fixing bugs with each new release. The latest from the WordPress development team is 4.1 and known as Dinah. The best feature is distraction free writing. All bloggers should enable it immediately after installing the update.
Numerous other features make the upgrade worth the time.
- Logout everywhere
- Vine embeds
- Plugin recommendations based on your currently active plugins
- New title tags
- New default theme
- Support for complex queries
I’ve been using the distraction free writing mode on the betas and release candidates for the past few weeks. The development team did an excellent job on this new feature.
Many WordPress installations accept automatic updates to WordPress. If you want to turn this feature off, then add the following to wp-config.php.
define( ‘AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED’, true );
