This week WordPress came out with a major release, WordPress 6.7. What's new? What's in it for site owners? Here's an update on new features and enhancements.
Key Features of The New WordPress 6.7
Site Editing Enhancements
- Pattern Directory: A centralized hub with a comprehensive library of design blocks/templates.
- Pattern Modifications: Have your pattern in several different versions and make other arrangements for various screen sizes or content types.
- Enhanced Template Hierarchy: A new flexible template hierarchy gives more control over how your site is structured. Design templates specific for particular pages or post-levels.
Performance Optimizations
- Faster Page Loads: These performance improvements help load pages faster: caching, less execution of JavaScript, and database optimizations.
- Enhanced Image Handling: Faster image loading, smoother scrolling. High-quality images without compromising performance.
Accessibility Improvements
- Enhanced Color Contrast: Improved checks for color contrast help achieve accessibility standards much easier. They make the site more accessible to the visually impaired.
