Leopard Admin v1.0 Released
I’m very happy to release Leopard Admin v1.0. The plugin is 100% compatible with WordPress 2.5 and I have every intention of keeping it up-to-date.
It turned out that creating the plugin from scratch for WordPress 2.5 was a much more enjoyable task than I expected. Since Happy Cog did such a great job in cleaning up the interface on all the forms and buttons, all I really had to do was enclose it in the Leopard inspired design. So what are you waiting for? Go download it! Be sure to let me know what you think in the comments as well as any requests for future versions.

Rocking with WordPress 2.5
I found some time last week to upgrade this blog to WordPress 2.5 and give the design a quick refresh. With over 1000 downloads, there definitely seems to be a demand for Leopard Admin despite the new WordPress admin design.
After reviewing the comments and the e-mails I’ve received with regards to Leopard Admin’s future, I’ve decided to make the plugin compatible with WordPress 2.5. I’m not sure when I’ll have the time to upgrade the plugin but I promise it won’t be too long. I will also make it a point to write about topics other than SXSW or Leopard Admin. All the changes will be coming soon.

WordPress 2.5 and the Future of Leopard Admin
WordPress unveiled a sneak peak at what’s to come in the next version of the popular blogging platform. The biggest change seems to be in the interface of the administration panel. Talk about bad timing.
Wow, I didn’t expect that. As soon as I read that Happy Cog was involved in redesigning the admin panel for WordPress, I knew right away that Leopard Admin was in trouble. Big trouble. The folks at Happy Cog are some of the best in the industry and as expected, they’ve done a fantastic job. I should have seen this coming.

Leopard Admin Beta Released
I made a promise and though it’s not completely polished, I’m releasing a beta version of my first WordPress plugin, Leopard Admin.
I never expected to get so busy this week and while I was on track to releasing a full 1.0 version of the plugin, I got caught up with work and SXSW preparations. It was silly of me to think that I could do it all. In any case, I didn’t want to let anybody down and have people continue to wait for this plugin. Consequently, I’m releasing a beta version of it. There are known issues but I would appreciate your feedback and if you could, please submit bugs in the comments to this post.
