Template Changes and New Tags for WordPress 3.0

Posted by Scott Jarkoff in Shorts

, ,

As Rich mentioned earlier, WordPress 3.0 was just released by the Automattic crew. Here is a list of the changes to the WordPress template system as well as new tags to be used by theme and plug-in authors:

Custom Post Types plus Custom Taxonomy Improvements

Earlier we could only create Posts or Pages. But now with Custom Post Types, we can create lot more types of posts like Gallery Items, Movie Information Posts etc. which will be independent in style from a normal post. Custom taxonomies which got introduced in WordPress 2.8 got a small upgrade which now allows them to be hierarchial too just like a normal Category.

Its difficult to explain all this in a small post plus there are already awesome tutorials on this.

WordPress 3.0 is a huge release, offering one of the largest feature set upgrades in the history of the platform. The merging of single-user WordPress with WPMU is one of the most exciting, for now WP can run multiple blogs with one installation – something Movable Type has been capable of for years.

The combination of WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress allows for the easy creation of a pretty wicked social networking site with relative ease.

Cherokee on UbuntuCherokee is a smoking hot up-and-coming web server capable of hanging with Apache while consuming exponentially less resources than its older sibling. As we wrote earlier, Cherokee saved TechMiso from Apache scalping all available RAM, ultimately allowing us to continue to provide the same service we provide today but with far better memory consumption. Learn how to install and configure Cherokee, MySQL, PHP and WordPress on Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope for a lean, mean, efficient web serving machine.

Update: Please see this newer article on jark.me, written by me, discussing how to install Cherokee, MySQL, PHP and WordPress on Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot. It is more accurate and current, and takes into account some updates to Cherokee and Ubuntu.
