WordPress has recently released its latest update: WordPress 4.7 version (name: “Vaughan”, in honour of jazz vocalist). According to WordPress.org, the new version of WordPress features:
- A brand new default theme: Twenty Seventeen with featured images and video headers
- Custom CSS in Live Preview: the live preview lets users work quickly without refreshing your page
- PDF Thumbnail Preview: uploading PDFs will generate thumbnail images
- Smoother Menu Building: the new 4.7 version lets you add new pages while building the menus instead of leaving the customizer and abandoning the changes. Once the customization is done, users will have new pages ready to fill with content
- and much more
