This explores flows from the update notice. This site was running 4.3 RC3 and the beta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group of users to trial under real conditions. Beta versions have gone through alpha testing in-house and are generally fairly close in look, feel and function to the final product; however, design changes often occur as part of the process. tester plugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party when vizreced, so the update-core.php screen shows beta track ui.
The codex pages linked to from the update notice and upgrade-core.php are not at all compelling. They’re the opposite of that. 🙂 You don’t see anything compelling until you reach the About page after doing the upgrade.
update-core.php really needs the shiny updates treatment. Upgrading to the next release is a flow Flow is the path of screens and interactions taken to accomplish a task. It’s an experience vector. Flow is also a feeling. It’s being unselfconscious and in the zone. Flow is what happens when difficulties are removed and you are freed to pursue an activity without forming intentions. You just do it.Flow is the actual user experience, in many ways. If you like, you can think of flow as a really comprehensive set of user stories. When you think about user flow, you’re thinking about exactly how a user will perform the tasks allowed by your product.Flow and Context

This is not a compelling page. 4.3 shipped without this page being updated. It had wrong dates and no link to the release announcement. Scroll down.

Please update now leads here. This page doesn’t compel an upgrade either. This UI UI is an acronym for User Interface - the layout of the page the user interacts with. Think ‘how are they doing that’ and less about what they are doing. is placeholder ui that is long overdue for the shiny updates treatment. As part of that, we should add at least a link to the release announcement. i18n must be considered. Perhaps api.wordpress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ could return a localized link.
