WordPress FAQ: Where did my Preview Link Go?

Posted on by

Where the hell did my “Preview Post” button go? We lost it with the Upgrade to 2.1, and I want it back.

This question comes from Cory Aldrich who echoes the sentiments of many WordPress users. In WordPress 2.1, the iframe that loaded the site in a window below the edit area of the Write screen, was removed. Mostly this was due to performance issue of loading a whole site inside a window. The outcry has been heard, however, and the Preview link has been restored to WordPress 2.2 – in a slightly different form. Changeset 5159 went back into the core on March 31st.

Custom Fields Contest Closed

Posted on by

Just a quick update on the Custom Fields contest. Entries not recieved by midnight last night will not be accepted as the contest has now closed. Tomorrow, I’ll be in contact with the judges about the entries that were recieved. It may take a few days for the judges to evaluate and return their pick for winner. At least one of them is travelling at this time.

I’m hoping that I’ll have something to announce sometime next week after the winner has been personally contacted.

Thanks.
