The wordpress 5.8 beta was released along with the date of final release on July 20, 2021.
This is the second major release of the year and comes with many new features and improvements.
Let's see what the upcoming WordPress 5.8 brings
You can try it version beta στον υπολογιστή σας χρησιμοποιώντας το Plugin WordPress Beta Tester.
New template editor
WordPress 5.8 will be released with the new program επεξεργασίας προτύπων. Είναι ένα βήμα για την δημιουργία ενός πλήρους εργαλείου επεξεργασίας ιστότοπου χρησιμοποιώντας τον block editor, κάτι που σημαίνει ότι θα μπορούσε να βελτιωθεί στις μελλοντικές κυκλοφορίες.
The template editor allows you to create and save templates for your site that you will later use for any post or page.
Το template editor θα σας επιτρέψει να προσθέσετε Site Editing blocks. Διατίθενται ορισμένα βασικά μπλοκ, όπως:
Site Logo
Tagline website
Site Title
Query Loop
post Official Qualification
Post Content
Post Date
post Excerpt
Post Featured Image
Post Categories
Post Tags
Login / out
page List
The feature is optional, and both themes developers and users will be able to turn it off easily.
Blocks σαν widgets στο WordPress 5.8
Another big step is the new blocks as a widget.
Users will be able to access the new widgets using the Customizer or from the Widgets page.
The new feature will bring flexibility to the block editor and WordPress sidebar widgets. You will be able to use colors, spaces and other drawing tools without installing additional add-ons.
The pictures WebP are coming to WordPress
Το WebP είναι μια νέα μορφή εικόνων που θα χρησιμοποιηθούν στο web. Χρησιμοποιώντας τη μορφή WebP, οι pictures σας θα είναι 25-34% μικρότερες σε μέγεθος αρχείου από τις μορες PNG και JPEG χωρίς απώλεια quality.
WordPress does not currently support WebP images. With WordPress 5.8, you can upload WebP images to your site without add-ons.
However, one drawback is that the new feature will not automatically replace the image with JPEG or PNG if a user views the site with a browser that does not support WebP images.
Improvements to the WordPress Editor 5.8
Editor is the place where administrators and columnists spend most of their time creating content. Each version of WordPress comes with many improvements, bug fixes and new features to improve the editing experience.
WordPress will end support for Internet Explorer by the end of 2021. 5.8 has merged most of the necessary changes needed for this.
