It’s still Friday in part of the world, which means the [latest iteration of MP6](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mp6/) is now available. This week was mostly dedicated to refining what we’ve been working on so far, expanded testing and support for multi-site installations (particularly one _really big_ multisiteMultisite Multisite is a WordPress feature which allows users to create a network of sites on a single WordPress installation. Available since WordPress version 3.0, Multisite is a continuation of WPMU or WordPress Multiuser project. WordPress MultiUser project was discontinued and its features were included into WordPress core.

Think ‘how are they doing that’ and less about what they are doing. that’s landed in WordPress 3.6. Here’s what’s new in 0.7: * The Post RevisionsRevisions The WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update. The revision system allows you to see what changes were made in each revision by dragging a slider (or using the Next/Previous buttons). The display indicates what has changed in each revision. page is now supported by MP6. * Updated styling for Menu Management and Widgets pages * Customized radio buttons that match MP6 checkboxes. * Default notifications now use green instead of red for their border color. * Adjustments to sticky menu positioning. * Prevent Jetpack retina styles from overriding MP6. * Enqueue Open Sans instead of loading via a CSSCSS CSS is an acronym for cascading style sheets. This is what controls the design or look and feel of a site. @import. * Include missing wpmini-blue images. * Reverted page tabs to look like tabs; we’ll explore more options here. * Visual bugfixes. * New version of Dashicons with additional glyphs. In addition, Mel put together a simple example page for Dashicons that lists all available icons and the corresponding CSS/HTML/glyph for each. We’ll continue to update this page with more information on using Dashicons. http://melchoyce.github. io/dashicons/ This week’s edition includes contributions from Joen Asmussen, Mel Choyce, Ben Dunkle, Till Krüss, and myself. Like (almost) always, we’ll be in #wordpress-ui at [Monday April 15 at 1800 UTC](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=18000421T0000) to discuss your feedback on this week’s edition.

Many thanks to Mel Choyce for putting that Dashicons page together. 57. However, being curious, I have to ask why does the top alignment of the glyphs vary and also why are some sized differently for the same font-size? 58. * ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/17a4afd592d3fca459103e047a9c29c6093ebf5f5d430b5fb50aa3711ab0528d? s=32&d=mm&r=g) * [Matt Thomas](https://profiles.wordpress.org/iammattthomas/) 5:21 pm _on_ April 29, 2013 * The icons should all be center-aligned, so we need as few per-icon adjustments as possible. A few of them still need a bit more adjusting; expect updates to the Dashicons font files as MP6 continues to progress.
