Contributing to WordPress 2.6 2.5
Tuesday, February 12th, 2008
WordPress is an excellent platform and it provides us at dagensskiva.com with a lot of built-in functionality that is required to run the site. The functionality that WordPress does not supply internally, we can add using our own custom made plugins, and, of course, plugins that other developers wrote. However, as any piece of software, WordPress is not perfect, and there are php files that we have to hack manually to get the desired functionality, particularly in the admin. To help WordPress become a better platform, I submitted this change to WordPress trac - now proposed to be part of WordPress 2.6 2.5. The change is very small but solves a problem that have been vexing us for quite some time.
One hack down, a handfull to go!
UPDATE: It got bumped to 2.5!
