Det var bara några månader sedan WordPress 3.5 släpptes (11 december 2012 för att vara exakt). Nästa stora release, WordPress 3.6, är redan på gång. WordPress 3.6 förväntas släppas i slutet av april 2013. Vi har följt utvecklarna av WordPress 3.6 och beslutat oss för att dela med oss av vilka funktioner du kan se fram emot. I den här artikeln kommer vi att diskutera vilka funktioner som kommer i WordPress 3.6.
Bättre redaktionella kontroller
WordPress 3.6 kommer att vara en bra update, viss för bloggare och publicerare av content. Den är inriktad på post edit area, vilket ger bättre tools och support för att förbättra den redaktionella processen att skapa content med WordPress.
Låsning av post
WordPress 3.6 kommer att ha en redaktionell kontrollfunktion, utvald som post lock. Detta gör det möjligt för administratörer och auktoriseringar att låsa ett post så att andra användare inte kan arbeta med samma post förrän den är unlockad. Om den andra användaren har rätt att edit ett post, kommer de att uppmanas att antingen gå tillbaka eller ta över. Det här är en mycket smidig funktion för bloggar med flera författare.
Förbättrad autospara
WordPress 3.6 kommer att fokusera på edit av content, så funktionen för automatisk save kommer att få några stora förbättringar. Det talas om att spara unsaved ändringar i webbläsarens lokala lagring. Detta kommer att vara till stor hjälp eftersom det kommer att förhindra att du förlorar posts på grund av löpte ut cookies, förlust av internetanslutning, oavsiktlig navigation, plugin eller core error på save, webbläsare kraschar, OS kraschar, katter som går på tangentbordet, etc. Om något av detta inträffar kommer du att kunna återstarta editingen exakt där du slutade.
Målet är att få folk att lita på WordPress med sina posts. Funktionen för autospara infördes av denna varierande anledning eftersom människor var rädda för att förlora sitt arbete. Detta är anledningen till att många använder tredjepartsapplikationer som Windows Live Writer för att skriva sina WordPress-poster. Förhoppningen är att genom att förbättra funktionen för autospara kommer många användare att börja lita på WordPress capability för autospara.
Bättre hantering av revisioner av posts
Post Revisions kommer nu att återspegla ändringarna mellan olika versioner. Changed kommer att markeras med färger och visuella element, så att you snabbt kan notice skillnaden mellan dem.
Redaktionellt arbetsflöde
Det fanns samtal om att integrera ett av de bästa redaktionella arbetsflödes plugin i core. Men på grund av tidsbegränsningar kommer denna funktion inte att läggas till i WordPress 3.6. Ansträngningarna var inte bortkastade eftersom det tog upp till ytan många utmaningar som är involverade i processen. Detta kommer att allow the core team att förbereda sig i förväg för nästa release. (Se Mark Jaquiths förklaring). Tja ingenting att oroa sig för. Du kan fortfarande använda Edit Flow plugin (vi använder det).
Nytt och förbättrat användargränssnitt för post format
Som du vet att WordPress har support för Post Formats och custom post format. Det gamla gränssnittet var dock inte särskilt notice. I WordPress 3.6 kommer det att finnas ett new användargränssnitt för post format. Användare kommer att kunna välja och växla mellan post format, och edit area kommer att ändras baserat på post format. Inspiration till dessa förändringar kommer från Alex Kings post format UI plugin, vi visade dig tidigare hur du installerar Post Format UI Plugin i WordPress 3.5. Folk skickar in idéer och wireframes om hur Post Formats UI ska gilla att se ut. Under är en mockup som lämnats in av Mel Choyce:
Tjugo tretton
WordPress 3.6 kommer också att levereras med Twenty Thirteen, det nya standardtemat för WordPress. Twenty Thirteen kommer att ha bra support för post format. Till skillnad från tidigare standardteman för WordPress kommer Twenty Thirteen att använda många djärva färger. Det kommer att använda olika bakgrundsfärg för varje post vilket ser bra ut när en användare rullar ner på sidan. Twenty Thirteen kommer att vara helt responsivt och kommer att se lika bra ut på olika storlekar på vyer, upplösningar och devices. Se live-demonstrationen.
Ett nytt GUI för WordPress-menyer
WordPress Menu Editor kommer också att få ett new och mer intuitivt användargränssnitt. På WPBeginner har vi lagt märke till att många WordPress nybörjare inte förstår menysystemet. Tabbarna, rullgardinsmenyerna, att välja flera menyer och växla mellan dem är trivialt för de flesta nya användare. Förhoppningsvis kommer detta att förändras i WordPress 3.6, och det kommer att bli lättare att skapa och hantera menyer i WordPress.
Förbättrade aviseringar vid login
Ibland löper en användares session ut mitt i något viktigt. Det nya systemet för aviseringar om inloggning kommer att be en användare att logga in utan att lämna den page de arbetade på.
Det är fortfarande lite tid kvar till lanseringen av WordPress 3.6. Detta är en stor release så förutom dessa utvalda funktioner kommer det att finnas flera förbättringar av core-koden, buggar, fixar, säkerhetsupdates etc. Kom ihåg att du alltid kan submitte your ideas for WordPress, de idéer som får flest röster kommer att inkluderas i kommande versioner av WordPress. Vilka utvalda funktioner skulle du gilla att se i WordPress? Vilken är din favoritfunktion i WordPress 3.6? Låt oss veta det i kommentarerna under.

I think WordPress Staff is doing a great job. I hope they can make it more user friendly in the next release. Not all wordpress users are programmers, you know.
Marian Pena says
As a new user to WordPress, I’m actually impressed already with the speed in which it loads. I have been a solid Joomla user for the last 8 years or so and until I had a problem in my own site yesterday, I had never tried WordPress, but decided while I wait for host to fix problem that I’d give it a go. Within an hour, I notified host not to bother, because I was switching CMS. However, as a 1 person admin site, I can honestly say that Lock Post does me no good, since I’m the only person who’s going to write my site, but for sites such as this one where there are probably several authors I can see it’s value.
The auto save feature from what I saw of it works just fine, so I’m not understanding the reasons for it’s improvement, but at the same time, being new, I wouldn’t know that either.
As a new user, I did find the menu/navigation a bit confusing, between understandind the difference between Pages and Categories, but as an experienced Joomla user and html user, I caught on quickly. I can see where newbies would get confused by it however.
The biggest improvement tho that I’d like to see is like the ”newspaper” guy who noted about the media library area. The fact that we can’t add our own folders or subfolders and need to rely on WP to do this for us based on a monthly folder system is disconcerning. Let’s say your a recipe site where you have tons of images, if your just starting to build your site, you could end up with 30k in images for your first week or month of work and they are all in that one folder. I’d rather be able to folderize my images in my own manner and in a way that I recognize when I’m looking at the backups on my hard drive or if I have to find something down the road.
Now, I’m off to find a replacement for feedburner and hopefully I will find one. I don’t really want a newsleeter, I just want something that will automatically allow my visitors to get updates much in the same feedburner works. Hearing that it might be closing was sad news, since I’d just figured it out a few days ago.
John says
Some extra post-types ”out of the box” would be a nice addition. Just having the option of posts & pages can sometimes be a bit limiting, and creating custom post types, custom taxonomies and metaboxes can be a pain.
StephenB says
How many sites will need/use the ’multi-user’ features is debatable. A significant proportion are never going to need them.
Post-formats looks interesting. I assume the loop will be able to display them easily.
But stop adding bits and start sorting the core. Taxonomy meta data is an essential. No use implementing all the cms goodies of custom post-types & taxonomies if they can’t be used properly. Post meta and user meta is there… why they didn’t add the tax_meta table is frustrating. There’s a Trac for this with plenty of recognised power-users pleading for it!
Chris Howard says
What WP desperately needs is better image management. Categories and tags, to begin with. I’m working for a newspaper site at the moment and the Media Library quickly fills with images. When you want the user to re-use one – e.g. a stock image of a politician or corporate logo – it’s pain for them to locate.
Editorial Staff says

Chris Howard says
Thanks. I looked at some of those, not sure if that one. Will check it out tomorrow.
Phil Simon says
Looks great. WP freaking rocks.
Keith Davis says
Thanks for the review guys
I love the WordPress custom menus interface.
Watched a video and then it was easy to use.
Obviuosly because of security, we have to upgrade but the one click upgrade is pretty painless.
Am I tempting fate saying that?
Robert Wilkins says
Thanks for the post! Auto lock looks promising but I agree with some of the other posters here, I don’t believe they really improved some of the items that needed improving. The visual editor, tinyMCE is horrible still. I have so many complaints from customers with this. On the tinyMCE site, the editor works flawlessly, it’s buggy in WP and broken with new version of Chrome.
Autosave is no big deal. I usually deactivate this on all my sites. WordPress is an awesome publishing platform but it’s getting bloated. It would be nice if automatic feeds aren’t optional or turned off. All that does is add size to the database.
I look forward to each release, but as Ryan Hellyer said, I keep hoping they make it better by reducing and optimizing rather than adding.
Hugh Sands says
I agree with you. It’s curious why so many software that become succesful follows the same path: ignoring bugs, avoiding optimizations, … getting into the bells and whistles run
When we’ll see many-to-many relationship integrated in the core or Ajax support improvements, specially performance?
Autosave/Revisions are overestimated IMHO
Yasir Jilani says
WoW…. just awesome, Thanks for the update, i am waiting for the 3.6 release!
Sandra says
These sound great, but I keep hoping they’ll do something to better organize the area in the dashboard that lists pages and posts.
A folder system instead of just indented subpages, for example, would be really helpful with large sites. That’s used in a number of commercial CMS platforms and it keeps things much better organized.
Andor Nagy says
WoW, Just wow. It’s unbelievable what these guys can come up with. I’m so exited about the new Post formats and stuff. The new theme looks amazing, but where did the sidebar go?
Also they’d really need to change how comments.php for themes works. It’s a nightmare to work with it D:
Gautam Doddamani says
oooh twenty thirteen looks awesome..i had heard about post lock a while back, a very interesting feature indeed! i have already controlled my post revisions to be maximum at 2 for every post…really thought editorial flow would come in wp 3.6 as well, hmm i guess they will introduce it later…i am really excited, mostly because a more new and nice gui has been given for the post editor
Cheers,
Gautam
Matt Rittman says
How about fixing the issue of not being able to link images to ”file”? I always have to manually edit this in code view, otherwise it links to the post.
conualfy says
I guess you are talking about inserting galleries. You can change the box from File to Attachment and back to File. This is the way I make it work until they fix the javascript.
Rajesh Magar says
Thanks Syed,
This is really great news that WordPress most popular theme is going to come with ”Responsive Design” functionality.
Chris says
Instead of Automatic Inc, investing 1.2 Million Dollars in wpengine.com and the EverCache system (Which really isn’t that great), they should have used the money to fix WordPress..
Editorial Staff says
Ummm why? Automattic is a separate entity created for profit. WordPress is a non-profit open source project. Anyone can contribute and make it better. Perhaps you should stop making money and contributing full-time to make WordPress better or in your own words ”fix it”???
Administratör
M Asif Rahman says
Thanks for the update. Nice timely post. I understand the cause of dropping Edit Flow from 3.6 core. But with Post lock and Improved Auto save maybe future version like 3.7 will come up with advance Editorial Flow control.
Editorial Staff says
Most definitely Asif.

Davide De Maestri says
95% of these features are unuseful XD
Editorial Staff says
Dang sorry you think that way
We really thought that auto-save and post locking was a great step forward in those areas.

Aaron says
I am very excited to see the additions! I can’t wait to see what the new post formats ui looks like!
rasarab says
Great features …..
Arif Rahman says
Looks exciting, waiting for the new release!
Harley says
I hated 3.5. Still do and regrets upgrading to it and despises the new media uploader. I always TURN off post revisions and hopes in 3.6 one still can.
What you NEED to fix is the way WP always messes with any custom HTML if switched back to VISUAL mode.
WordPress is really beginning to become bloated and intrusive, If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
Editorial Staff says
If the formatting troubles you, then you can always disable them.
remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize'); remove_filter('the_excerpt', 'wptexturize'); remove_filter('comment_text', 'wptexturize'); remove_filter('the_title', 'wptexturize');1-click Use in WordPress
Yes, you can always turn off revisions, but we find them to be very useful.
Administratör
Mohan Babu says
Wow ! just nice version …..
Ahmad Raza says
Great features..can’t wait to see these all features working on my site…
Ajay says
I switched from WLW to WordPress’ editting interface because of its media manager back in 3.4 which just got better with 3.5.
WLW just didn’t give me the flexibility for managing images. And, worst of all it doesn’t work on a Mac
Editorial Staff says
Agreed. But with this new auto-save, it’s getting even better.
Administratör
Elliott Richmond says
Post locking looks sweet! And it’s about time Post Formats had a little overhaul
Editorial Staff says
Yes, we are very excited for the future of themes. Because now more themes will have an incentive to be compatible with these post formats.
Administratör
Ryan Ray says
Yup, very excited about post formats! Should be a big help in pushing themes to adopt them as well!
anwar hussain says
Just want to say WOW! for new WordPress 3.6… Specially Twentythirteen theme……
Pritesh Desai says
Looks exciting, waiting for the new release!
Ata Ur Rehman says
Very interesting and looking forward to it..
Ryan Hellyer says
My favourite feature is the lack of features. This release seems to be concentrating more on improving what is there rather than adding more junk to the trunk.
