WP Admin Area Options

April 21, 2008 | Filed under: Around the Web, Downloads

If you’ve already upgraded to WordPress 2.5, then you know that 2.5 brings a BIG change to the admin area. Automattic worked with a team from Happy Cog Studios to redesign the admin area for greater ease and usability. However, while this improvement may help users new to WordPress, people used to the old admin area may be having some issues acclimating to the new interface. In fact some “power users” downright hate it. While that’s a perfectly valid point of view, I consider myself a power user, and I actually really like the new interface. That’s not to say I love everything about it, though.

The great thing about WordPress and it’s big, wonderful community is that if there is something you are dissatisfied with, there’s probably someone else out there just like you. Unlike you, they may know how to write a plugin or a hack to fix it. In the past few weeks I’ve come across several of these fixes and I thought I’d highlight them.
