Wordpress 2.5
April 1st 2008
After a long time “waiting” (I really didn’t care that much) Wordpress 2.5 is out and trisweb.com is running it. The upgrade went as smooth as any previous one and it’s been very nice to use so far. The admin redesign is beautiful (surprised me, even) and all is working well.
It’s been a very long time since I’ve posted anything here, but I’ve been very busy with my startup and everything else. I’m currently in Boston with my business partner coding away, we’re making huge progress, and I’m more and more confident that it’s going to be the ‘next big thing’ for our market, and indeed maybe a paradigm shift for enterprise software in general. Time will tell, but it takes a lot for me to be confident in an implementation, and I’m finally seeing it come together.
Other things that have been going on… hmm. Zenphoto development is as hot as ever. If you haven’t checked out the latest versions or the new site, now’s the time to upgrade.
Speaking of Zenphoto and Wordpress, despite Wordpress’ having some decent new photo management features in 2.5, I think a Wordpress+Zenphoto plugin to integrate with the new “Add image” pane would be great. I’ll look into it and see if it’s plausible.
Well, this is my april fool’s post then I suppose. I’m not really posting, it’s just a joke. Happy Spring!
Hi Tris—I’ve been using a little plugin for displaying zenphoto images to my liking (using lightbox) on my own website for a while, but recently have looked into adding zenphoto images to the media browser, much as you have considered. Do you know if anyone is working on this? If not, I’ll probably move ahead with it.
Thanks!

I haven’t started work on it, no, but it would be a great feature. Go ahead with it if you can! Keep us updated on the zenphoto forums, http://www.zenphoto.org/support
Tristan,
I couldn’t believe you liked the new admin panel! They totally hosed the widgets! The categories and tags have been moved way down the page! Overall a step in the wrong direction in my opinion.
If you need a good Java developer to telecommute – my wife’s available. Good luck with the startup!
