A new update of WordPress for Android is now available in
Android Market. We’re pleased to introduce version 1.4, which adds some very
powerful features! Here’s what’s new:
Post Scheduling
You can now easily set the publish date and time in the app
when creating a post or page. The date can be set to the future which will set
the post status to ‘Scheduled’ and publish on your blog when the time arrives.
You can also edit existing posts and tweak the published date and time if
desired.
Post Password
At the bottom of the post editor we’ve added a Post Password
field to help protect your content. Simply enter a password here and the post
will require that the password be entered for viewing on the blog when
published. You can also add or remove a password from published posts as well.
HTTP Authentication Support
Is your self-hosted blog protected with an HTTP
Authentication username and password? We’ve added support for entering the
Authentication credentials in the blog settings so that you can manage your
blog through the app. To access the Authentication settings, add a self-hosted
blog to the app and select ‘Optional Settings’ in the setup area.
Additional Changes
We’ve tidied up a few more things in the 1.4 update,
including:
Added secure password storage to the local database.
‘Unapproved’ comments now have a yellow tint.
Added ‘Today’ option in stats.
Fixed crash when alert dialog was trying to be shown after
the app was closed.
Fixed crash related to large post ID values.
Remember, WordPress for Android is an Open Source project.
Most of the features in this release were contributed by volunteer developers
in the community. Big thanks to chdorner and jnijhof for their hard work! Get
in touch with us on our Developer Blog if you’d like to contribute to the
project.
