See the full list of changes since beta 2.
Great!!!
I’m really looking forward to testing out this Beta. I’m an avid user of Opera, and if I can use WordPress without firing up FireFox, I’d absolutely love it
Thanks for all the work you and the team have put into this!
If you have time, I would like to know from you why since 2.5 a giant number of tickets on trac are assigned to the next version of wordpress?
Thanks!
The vertical bar for “WordPress.com Stats” plugin login still missing in the Dashboard. I am using Firefox 3
Cool! I’ll wait for the official release before upgrading. Don’t always have to be on the bleeding age. (=
I’m currently making use of it on my live sites. XD So far, everything works out very well..
Hello just installed wordpress 2.6 beta 2, over wordpress 2.5.1.
Done the DB upgrade whituout problem, but now I CAN’T login with admin username.
WP dosn’t accept my password. I have try also with a fresh password, generated by WP, without result
Any hints?

Lovely, can’t wait for release
.
Post revisions is gold. Give the team a friendly greet from me, you’re all doing a great job and I appreciate it a whole lot. Thanks!
Shame that there are still over 700 open tickets! Are you aiming to close those before 2.6 is released :-p
I hold on official version until now for this version to test the computer to see how it behaves …
Thanks for the fixes regarding the image management tool, that’s very much appreciated.
This looks like being a significant improvement over 2.5, with some really good features and much-needed fixes. Thanks for listening to the user feedback and responding in this next release.
Great!!! Versions. I Love WordPress
Looks great – especially with the post/page revision build right into the core system.
Constructive feedback: I am having difficulties using any of the Advanced Options sub menus like “Page parent” on the manage pages interface – it just does not seem to react anymore.
Page revisions is impossible to collapse as well… maybe there is a connection?
(Similar behavior in FF3 and Safari)
Ale:
you need to clear the cookies before trying to login…
Does the “press this” uploads photos to any of you?? To me it doesnt… i wonder if it’s just de RC1 or it’s gonna be like that…
Try Flock’s Blog editor!
A pity that the WordPress Dashboard is still not customizable !
@Ale I wouldn’t advise you to overwrite stable releases with betas.
Try emailing a ‘lost password’ form to your email address. If that doesn’t work, try an MD5 Hasher. Type in your password, and paste it into the user_pass field in the users table of your database.
