Editing Improvements
Inline Linking
Stay focused on your writing with a less distracting interface that keeps you in place and allows you to easily link to your content.
Formatting Shortcuts
Do you enjoy using formatting shortcuts for lists and headings? Now they’re even more useful, with horizontal lines and <code>.
Customisation Improvements
Live Responsive Previews
Make sure your site looks great on all screens! Preview mobile, tablet, and desktop views directly in the customiser.
Custom Logos
Themes can now support logos for your business or brand. The Twenty Fifteen and Twenty Sixteen themes have been updated to support custom logos, which can be found in the Site Identity section of the customiser.
Under the Hood
Selective Refresh
The customiser now supports a comprehensive framework for rendering parts of the preview without rewriting your PHP code in JavaScript. See it in action with Menus.
Smart Image Resizing
Generated images now load up to 50% faster with no noticeable quality loss. It’s really cool.
JavaScript Library Updates
jQuery 1.12.3, jQuery Migrate 1.4.0, Backbone 1.2.3, and Underscore 1.8.3 are bundled.
