WordPress LogoWordPress 2.5 Release Candidate 2 (RC2) has been released today.

As previously mentioned there is a new gallery feature built into WP 2.5 and Matt has created a screencast which includes an overview of this handy new feature. I’ll be testing the gallery feature out soon here on Blog24.

Matt’s screencast also includes an overview of the Dashboard and the newly designed Post page.

It is good to hear that this upgrade has not caused any reported problems with existing themes. The same cannot be said for plugins but many developers of the quality plugins have been updating their code to make it work with WordPress 2.5.

Initially having an incompatible theme was one of my concerns as this is such a new blog. However, I have not have to alter anything in my theme due to the transition from WP 2.3.3 to 2.5.
