Update Now to WordPress 3.6 Oscar

WordPress has announced the availability of version 3.6, WordPress “Oscar.” Dirigo Creative recommends all clients update their WordPress installations to Oscar now to take advantage of its new functionality.

The reason we use WordPress with our clients is how easy it is to use on a regular basis. WordPress is intuitive and requires no programming knowledge. If you can use the software that comes with your computer, you can use WordPress. With WordPress 3.6 Oscar, updating your website is simple. Want to share a video, song or article with your users? With WordPress 3.6 Oscar, just copy and paste the URL into the blog post window. Once pasted in, when your post the video is professionally displayed on your website.

This is a great feature that saves extra steps, but another major upgrade has been made in content version control. Controlling content written by your employees is easier now with automatic save, post lock and revision control hat lets you review the entire history of a document to review changes:

Auto save saves what you are working on every few seconds so that you don’t lose what you are writing if you close your tab or are called away from your screen.

Post lock provides a pop-up that allows you to take over editing a post when another is working on it. When you save your edits and release the post, your collaborator’s view is then updated with your changes.

Revision control displays a timeline slider on each post so that an editor can review all changes made to a post to review all revisions by all collaborators before publishing a post.
