Version 4.6 of WordPress, named “Pepper” in honor of jazz baritone saxophonist Park Frederick “Pepper” Adams III, is available for download or update in your WordPress dashboard. New features in 4.6 help you to focus on the important things while feeling more at home.

Steamlined Updates

If you do your updates yourself then it is that bit easier as you are kept on the update while you update, install, and delete your plugins and themes.

Native Fonts

The WordPress dashboard now takes advantage of the fonts you already have, making it load faster and letting you feel more at home on whatever device you use.

Editor Improvements

Inline Link Checker

WordPress now checks your links as you type them. So no more broken links because of typing errors.

Content Recovery

As you type, WordPress saves your content to the browser. Recovering saved content is even easier with WordPress 4.6.

Developer Updates

There are more “under the hood” updates but the ones above are the main ones that will affect users.

Conclusion: WordPress are working hard at making content creation as easy as possible without distractions and minimizing possible user error.  This update goes some way to helping that goal.
