Greetings, Savvy WordPress Enthusiasts. Time for another update to the plugin that gives WordPress that new car smell again, MP6.
This week, we worked on getting MP6 into the hands of a few million new potential testers. We’ve already gotten some interesting feedback from WordPress.com users, and hopefully our experience getting WordPress.com’s various moving bits working alongside MP6 will help pave the way for plugin authors when the new design has started making its way into core.
In version 0.8, we have:
- Prepared MP6 for a new opt-in test on WordPress.com.
- Updated the Dashicons font with more consistent icon alignment.
- Removed cursor: default from current items in the menu bar. (ref)
- Updated color of widget titles so they’re readable on the new blue background. (ref)
- Improved typography on Post Revisions page.
- Fixed the alignment and sizing of checkboxes. (ref)
- Removed CSS for old PNG icons.
- Fixed display issues with the bulk editor.
- Made improvements to Press This.
- Improved the legibility of the Browse Happy outdated browser warnings.
This week’s iteration includes contributions from Joen Asmussen, Ben Dunkle, Till Krüss, and myself.
As usual, we’ll be in #wordpress-ui on Monday April 22 at 1800 UTC to discuss your feedback on this week’s edition. Thanks as always to those of you who have helped with feedback, patches, and suggestions so far.
