WordPress is revamping their engine. I like many of the changes.
Finally, the blogroll section is called links which means something to everyone. This is especially helpful when implementing WordPress for sites that are not, strictly speaking, blogs. Clients won’t say anymore, “Hey, I wanted xyz, not a blog…”
The WP team has not added extremely needed CSS for their tag feature. As such I cannot deploy it because I cannot control the styling. “Classes” such as tag-link-10; however, these seem to reflect the category ID (i.e., “-10″ part) and as such are more properly ids and not classes. There is no general way to shape up the tag cloud widget which in my experience easily spills over from sidebars into the page copy itself. While there may be reasons to hard code the font-size into the style attribute, it severely hampers designers’ abilities to customize the look and feel of the site. I recommend using a series of CSS classes that employ a relative font-size and font weight, perhaps even color.
