WordPress 4.3 [JAZZ]
-
named for jazz legend [JAZZER]
-
makes your writing workflow faster,
-
your site easier to customize
-
and your passwords stronger.
-
Let's take a look at how
-
WordPress 4.3 is helping
-
one small business owner.
-
This is Kate,
-
and this is the website for Kate's cafe:
-
Schroedinger's Cup.
-
Kate wants to provide a daily menu
-
for her customers
-
to keep them updated on
-
what she's serving each day.
-
This morning she's going to make that happen
-
right in WordPress.
-
Kate's new daily menu page
-
will tell her customers
-
what she's brewing and
-
what's for lunch that day.
-
She wants to make her
formatting nice and clear
-
for her customers so they can quickly
-
see what's on offer.
-
In WordPress 4.3
she can change how her
-
text looks without any clicks.
-
Formatting shortcuts allow her to create
-
lists, headings, and quotes,
-
without breaking her flow.
-
That keeps the task of
publishing her daily menu
-
straightforward and fast,
-
leaving her free for the serious business
-
of making coffee.
-
Time for Kate to add the new page to the
-
navigation menu on her sidebar.
-
There's no need to go to the
-
admin to do this.
-
In WordPress 4.3, Kate can add her
-
new menu item from the customizer,
-
where she can live preview changes
-
to her website before she publishes them.
-
When viewing her new page,
all she has to do
-
is click "customize", select "menus",
-
and add the new page to her sidebar menu.
-
That wasn't hard.
-
Now Kate's customers can check her website
-
every day to see what she's serving.
-
There's another new tool
in the customizer.
-
Kate can now upload a site icon so that
-
her logo appears in browser tabs
-
and bookmark menus.
-
Her customers can even create a shortcut
-
on the homescreen of their mobile device.
-
Now they always have Kate's daily menu,
-
whenever they need it.
-
And those aren't the only changes to
-
WordPress 4.3.
-
When Kate adds a new staff member
-
to her website, WordPress will generate
-
a strong password for them.
-
If the staff member changes that password,
-
WordPress tells them if their password
-
is strong.
-
That's enough WordPress for today,
-
Kate's got a business to run.
-
But she's happy that with every update
-
WordPress keeps improving.
-
And she in turn can keep her
customers happy,
-
giving them the information they need,
-
right at their fingertips.

A more refined blend.
