Upgraded to 2.7

If you’re a blog user, you’ll see that we’ve updated to the latest version. Quite a change of interface, but hopefully a good thing for all.

If you want to know more about the latest version and how to use it, try this post, introducing the ‘Coltrane’ upgrade’ on the wordpress site.

Print it (if you must!)

Not that we really recommend printing web pages, but we’ve just updated the CSS for the unimelb-sandbox template, adding some print friendly styles. It really did look pretty awful in IE!

Publishing simplified

We’re pleased to offer locally installed Wordpress blogs as an alternative publishing method for University of Melbourne users.

Our blogging tool, Wordpress MU, lets us centrally handle a lot of the management tasks like upgrades, stats, themes, spam control and plugins, leaving you to get on with writing your content.

With simplicity come constraints, but if you find that Wordpress MU doesn’t do everything you need, we can upgrade you to a stand-alone Wordpress install, or even migrate you into the CMS.

In most cases though, we’d recommend just getting started this way and seeing where it takes you in the longer run.
