Lets start to install wordpress 3.1 Beta 1.

1. Download wordpress version 3.1 Beta 1 from wordpress.org site.

3. Open the folder name in your webserver and create the configuration files.

Once you’re done, you should be able to log in to your wordpress dashboard. There are so many new features i will share it with you very soon, because i need to take screenshots and video.

I have decided not to create video to install wordpress 3.1 Beta because you can follow this installing wordpress 3.0.1 tutorial.

However i did make video about new features of wordpress 3.1 Beta, which you can read from webdev too.

Video new features of wordpress 3.1 beta:

Screenshots, the difference between wordpress 3.0 and 3.1 Beta:

1. Better column sorting in the dashboard.
For example, you want to search the newest or oldest post, you can sort them by clicking the arrow button.

2. Improvement on “link” in the post options.
You can now work faster whenever you want to link to your other posts or pages.
Interlinking in your site is important, also to improve your traffic. If you have not use related post yet, see more about my tutorial on adding related post without plugin.

3. More better pagination on your posts, or pages.
In the older version, you can’t type the direct page, example, you want to go to page “50” you can just type in the small box.

4. Admin color scheme — more clean blue color.
In this following image, you will see the more clean blue option for your custom dashboard.
The dark one is missing.

As i said, not so much different than the older version, i hope this short review and tutorial to install wordpress 3.1 Beta 1 is useful for you!
