WordPress 2.4 is coming to a blog near you …

If you've just upgraded your blog toWordPress 2.3.2, you may or may not be interested to know that a major new release will be launched on or around January 24th 2008.

This version of WordPress will also include some changes to the design features in the admin area that you may love, hate or be indifferent to, but I'm really writing this post for the benefit of Semiologic or users of custom designed WordPress themes …

Please do not rush to upgrade your blog until you are sure it's compatible with the Semiologic theme.  Denis de Bernardy is very good at checking the compatibility of WordPress upgrades with the Semiologic theme so, before you do anything, keep an eye out at the semiologic forum - www.forum.semiologic.com - for more information.

Whilst I've directed this post at Semiologic users, I would highly suggest that anyone using a WordPress custom theme check compatibility with the theme developer first.

I assure you, it's best to wait an extra couple of weeks before upgrading rather than having to spend hours fixing your blog.
