Blog Switcher
One of the things that has been a long-standing pain here is that if you run more than one blog on WordPress.com it’s pretty difficult to switch between the dashboards.
It’s actually easier to leave your dashboard and go to your blog’s home page, so you can use the admin bar to move between dashboards. Countless mouse clicks have been wasted doing so.
No longer! Now if you have more than one blog you can hover over the title of your blog in your dashboard and it’ll show you a drop down with all your other blogs. Clicking on one will take you to the same page in the other dashboard, with one click! Mice around the world will breathe a sigh of relief.
Just a note: It only shows up if you have more than one blog, or if you’re on the global dashboard.

That’s amazing. I wish i would have started all my blogs on WordPress first. None of this pesky multi-site blogging…

Thanks for all your hard work, this place is amazing.

I _thought_ something was different. Yes, that drop-down menu is a real time saver. Thanx.
Mar 6th at 6:43 am
I was longing for this. Thanks.
Mar 6th at 7:07 am
Cool.
Mar 6th at 7:12 am
Yay thank you so much. Makes life so much easier instead of having to go to the homepage and switching to the dashboard from there.
Mar 6th at 8:16 am
Wow what timing! I just decided to setup another blog now too.

I’ve been waiting for this since I started – two identical blogs, Italian and English, and then other two… Now I have nothing more to ask!
WP rocks!
Mar 6th at 9:00 am
Thanks I wanted it for long. I hope this function also allows to have different author id under different blogs.
Mar 6th at 9:05 am
AWESOME!
Thanks for everything!
Mar 6th at 9:12 am
Cool! But the title text shrinked…
Mar 6th at 9:22 am

What a wonderful update!!
Mar 6th at 11:08 am
Ah, if it only happened a month ago.
I had two blogs and then I had to delete one and start from a differet email addres (user name) because the dashbord mixes.
Never mind my case, a superd addition Matt.
Mar 6th at 11:40 am
Merci !
Mar 6th at 11:57 am
My second blog has always been a bit neglected because switching to it was just a little bit too much effort…but now there’s no excuse not to check it
Mar 6th at 12:02 pm
Thank you WordPress. This is very useful to me.
Mar 6th at 12:09 pm
Nice One!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Mar 6th at 12:38 pm
Very useful – thank you !
Mar 6th at 12:40 pm
That’s one of the best improvements you’ve been doing ever!
Thanks!
Mar 6th at 12:45 pm
just checked it out. oooh! this one is a good one from my point of view. thank you!
Mar 6th at 12:49 pm
I’ve been waiting for this for months — it’s perfect.
Thanks WordPress! You, like, rule.
Mar 6th at 12:53 pm
awesome, just noticed it and wondered, was that there all along!
Mar 6th at 1:00 pm
Good job WordPress. Thanks.
Mar 6th at 1:02 pm
Thank You
Mar 6th at 1:10 pm
very awesome, i’ve needed that for a while.
the aesthetics are a little wonky, but i trust you’ll sort that out.
Mar 6th at 1:12 pm
Merci buckets!
Mar 6th at 1:40 pm
Oh, this is lovely and very much appreciated. It was my biggest pet peeve with WordPress!
Mar 6th at 2:05 pm
I’ve just noticed this – thanks very much, it was a bit of a pain before!
Mar 6th at 2:06 pm
Hey Matt, I´ve missed this feature… just until today! In my case, it was very good for switching all my blogs … before, I´ve had to go to wordpress home page or visualize a blog to switch ..
Thank you!

This is it! And sooner than expected! It’s what I (we all) wanted. Thanks so much. I guess now the only issue remains is the interface… to make it look more ‘pretty’. Right now the drop down is a little obtrusive and overshadows a bit of the screen space. Maybe with a little more design it will not only be useful but more aesthetically pleasing.
Mar 6th at 2:13 pm
Cool I was looking for this all the time… you’re the god of small things!
Mar 6th at 2:20 pm
it’s a wonderful thing!!
Mar 6th at 2:20 pm
Great job, Matt. Thanks! No more bitching when switching blogs now.
Mar 6th at 2:20 pm
You guys are awesome. I always look forward to checking out the dashboard every time I log on. It’s like checking to see if there are new little surprise gifts left for us while we were away.
Thank you so much for all your hard work. WordPress rocks!
Mar 6th at 2:37 pm
Sweet! Thanks!
Mar 6th at 2:38 pm
nice one! i’ve often wondered about the lack of it, and now here it is. thank you!!
Mar 6th at 2:39 pm
Very nice… saved me a gazillion mouse clicks. Thanks
Mar 6th at 2:39 pm
great. I love it. it’s easy now to switch my dashboard.
Mar 6th at 2:42 pm
wow wow, thank you!
Mar 6th at 2:48 pm
Thanks a lot for this, Matt. Much easier on the clicking finger.
Mar 6th at 3:19 pm
Thanks Matt….Great addition & Congratulations on making the “Top 50 Web Shakers & Movers” on PC World. Number 16, not bad…..

You guess never cease to amaze me how in touch with the needs of this community you are. Thanks again.

Mar 6th at 3:46 pm
I LOVE this! Thank you. Thank you thank you!
Mar 6th at 3:53 pm
Thanks! You guys are awesome about constantly upgrading things!
I agree with JV’s comment above about hoping for multiple author IDs to go along with the separate blogs. (For us mulitple personality type of people!)
Mar 6th at 3:56 pm
Great!
Mar 6th at 4:04 pm
excellent !
you are smart, matt
Mar 6th at 4:18 pm
Good
Mar 6th at 4:20 pm
Cool option. I guess I’ll have to start writing on my other blog, too.
Thanks for the guilt trip.
No really, thanks for making this stuff so easy (except for the writing part).
Mar 6th at 4:22 pm
awesome. I noticed this this morning. Thanks for the continued work.
Mar 6th at 4:27 pm
I posted a comment earlier telling you that I couldn’t use that feature with Safari.
Well, I’ve got it now! It’s working! I don’t know why it wasn’t working earlier, but it’s working now.
So, now I can give a report!
It’s AWESOME.
Thank you so much for that update. I’m using it a bunch already. It’s very useful.
Thanks you SO MUCH for all y’all are doing with WordPress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mar 6th at 4:45 pm
Perfect!
Mar 6th at 4:47 pm
Much Better! Thanks!
Mar 6th at 4:48 pm
Doing another blog??? It’ll make both blogs bitter.
Mar 6th at 4:49 pm
Fantastic! This was a real pain. Many thanks.
Mar 6th at 5:05 pm
My mouse and I thank you all *so* very much! This is *cool*!
Mar 6th at 5:44 pm
