Admin Bar Everywhere
We are happy you liked our new admin bar design, but we are even happier to make it better.
Here are two little improvements, based on your feedback:
The admin bar is visible in your admin panel, too.
The admin bar used to show only on blog pages. Not any more.
There is a link to your Stats page in the admin bar.
The link in My Account takes you to to the Stats page on your Global Dashboard, where you have access to the pageviews and other stats of all your blogs.
It’s little things that make us smile.

cool !
very great !
June 3rd, 2008 at 4:35 pm
O.K.
June 3rd, 2008 at 4:39 pm
cool.
unfortunately the latest dashboard tweaks mean that it no longer works in older versions of Safari… the browser crashes instantly.
but good to know you guys listen to feedback.
June 3rd, 2008 at 4:42 pm
Awesome!
June 3rd, 2008 at 4:44 pm
I think it is a redundancy as we already have all the option Tabs in our dashboard, but… well… some time this redundancy seems very useful. Suppose from the DESIGN option now I can directly go to the STATS option! Well another good addition. Thanx WP team.
Don’t you have any plan to allow the java scripts in wordpress.com? Is there any new gorgeous theme is coming for wordpress.com?

June 3rd, 2008 at 5:27 pm
You guys just like to spoil us.
June 3rd, 2008 at 5:34 pm
That’s great ^^ I’ts usefull. Continue with this great job!
June 3rd, 2008 at 5:45 pm
Both these two changes make me a very happy blogger.
June 3rd, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Yes, very good improvements. Thank you very much. Keep up the great work!
June 3rd, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Very cool, thank you.
June 3rd, 2008 at 5:59 pm
Re: #1, Thank you! That does make things easier. We do like to be plugged in all the time. #2, I didn’t see that in the menu until you pointed it out. For the gazillion of us obsessed with stats, you have fed our semi-addictions.
Nice!
June 3rd, 2008 at 6:04 pm
I luv stats! And now I luv the Admin bar even more
Thank u Nikolay & WP!
June 3rd, 2008 at 6:14 pm
Handy.
June 3rd, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Cool idea adding it to the dashboard!
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:00 pm
Great! Now I’m waiting for the posibility to have my links to open in a new window/tab by default
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:06 pm
Thanks a lot!!
And easy acces to the stats is an improvements many of us will salute!
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:17 pm
It’d be cool to have a sort of admin bar (only smaller) as a browser plug in.
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:17 pm
Nikolay, thanks for the updates
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:29 pm
WordPress just keeps getting better and better
June 3rd, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Nice navigation improvements. It helps since I’m still getting used to the dashboard redesign.
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:12 pm
nice! =)
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:14 pm
This is cool, maybe I will finally check my stats now.
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:30 pm
Great! I’ve been wanting to access my stats from the bar for a long time, and I know that was one of the major feedback items you received.
Thanks for such quick improvements!
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Greeeaate!
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:38 pm
SUPER AWESOME!!!! Thanks man!
June 3rd, 2008 at 8:41 pm

June 3rd, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Holla!

Most excellent, as usual
June 3rd, 2008 at 9:15 pm
Yeah it’s better!
June 3rd, 2008 at 10:02 pm
Thank you for enabling our stats addiction.
Seriously, these are very nice and useful tweaks.
June 3rd, 2008 at 10:18 pm
Been waiting for the bar-anywhere feature, thanks!
June 3rd, 2008 at 10:25 pm
This saves my day – I need these 1-click stats
June 3rd, 2008 at 10:32 pm
Admin bar is about 2 pixels smaller in height, than it’s background — I can even click on “Dashboard” link beneath it. Hope you’ll fix it… or I’ll just Stylish-it
(Firefox 2.0.0.14, XP SP2)
p.s. thanks for the Stats link in the bar!
June 3rd, 2008 at 11:05 pm
Hurray! Good work guys.
June 3rd, 2008 at 11:05 pm
Cool! I wanted the stats there!
June 3rd, 2008 at 11:37 pm
This is sooo handy.
I love that I can check my stats direct from my actual home page!
Thanks

I like the stats shortcut. I used to have to bookmark it.
June 3rd, 2008 at 11:46 pm
This is lovely, thank you
June 4th, 2008 at 12:04 am
This is what I’ve been looking for. Thanks!
June 4th, 2008 at 12:20 am

Great!!! Thanks.
June 4th, 2008 at 2:01 am
Heh! Nice update with the Stats on the Admin Bar!
Why are you making us get our stats fix so easily?

June 4th, 2008 at 2:42 am
Great… well, I’ve never cared a lot for the Admin Bar but now I find it useful-desu
(Dun care ’bout my otaku-based words, but I can’t avoid ‘em)
>.> Stats rulz! *3*
I always start my day watching my stats, but I always get depressed as soon as i get to see em T_T
Well, now the process anxiety -> Depression, will come quicker…
Thanks for working on that and making our blogging days easier nyo n.n

June 4th, 2008 at 3:33 am
Good job
June 4th, 2008 at 3:53 am
So now I’ve got another bar which doubles up on links I have on my dashboard?
It’s not better at all! I can do most of the stuff on that bar from clicking a link on my dashboard, and it just makes annoying clutter. Anywhere else but the dash would be good
June 4th, 2008 at 3:54 am
Oooh, more juice for stats addicts! This takes me to my happy place.
June 4th, 2008 at 4:12 am
Pretty cool! A lot more convenient.
June 4th, 2008 at 4:37 am
i definitely love the stats link..nice improvement
June 4th, 2008 at 5:09 am
Cool
June 4th, 2008 at 5:16 am
You guys can read minds! I was just thinking yesterday how great it would be to have stats on the admin bar!!
June 4th, 2008 at 5:27 am
I totally love it. Makes getting around so easy!
June 4th, 2008 at 5:51 am
Thanks for the notes on the new features
June 4th, 2008 at 6:14 am
I saw the new admin bar yesterday, if I’m not mistaken. Found it very useful, thank you.
June 4th, 2008 at 6:33 am
little things do help….
it would be great if you add another functionality – to toggle the visibility of the admin bar…
June 4th, 2008 at 6:34 am
Good Idea. i’ts Great!
June 4th, 2008 at 6:44 am
This is useful. Thanks.
June 4th, 2008 at 6:53 am
Thanks for the info. What a handsome guy you are Nikolay, lol.
June 4th, 2008 at 6:55 am
yup,, little thing but this useful.
June 4th, 2008 at 7:09 am
I Like it!
June 4th, 2008 at 7:23 am
Very Cool! Thank You!!
June 4th, 2008 at 7:34 am
finally a quick way to get to stats! thank you.
never could figure out why all the admin were separated from one another;
this goes a long way to making this app so much better.
looking forward to everything else you folks have up your sleeves.
how about rolling some cool wp.org plugins into the mix?

June 4th, 2008 at 7:37 am
Sweet. Thank you for this!
June 4th, 2008 at 10:25 am
Thanks, that is a big help.
June 4th, 2008 at 10:41 am
You are doing a great job, here !
I’m a begginer blogger and I’m fascinated how easily worked out the registration of my own blog !
Thank you and Good luck !
June 4th, 2008 at 10:46 am
That’s really cool, keep up the good work!
June 4th, 2008 at 10:50 am
Whoa! when the first admin bar came long back, I had requested for the stats page to be included in the bar… and finally it is here. Save a lot of time for people like me, who visit stats page more often than the number of visitors to the blog
June 4th, 2008 at 11:57 am
An interesting tool for navigation … and thanks …
June 4th, 2008 at 11:58 am
good widgets :_D bye live of rock & roll ^^
June 4th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
Great, great, great idea! And very helpful too.
Thanks so much.

At first glance this appears almost useless.
The global stats page not really valuable to us. First, if you have more than one blog – what do you see on the global stats page? For us, it isn’t the stats of the blog we want.
Second, to get what you want – Stats – you have to click numerous times – what’s the point? Where’s the value?
For those who want blog stats, ie, how many hits today – why not just add a widget to the admin bar that displays the # of hits 24/7? No clicks, always available and when you click on the # it then takes you to the full stats page. Get there and you’ll have created time savings & value. Yes your total internal page hits will go down but who cares – your customer sat will go way up.
June 4th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
Wow… Link for the stats page in admin bar is very useful. I can access my stats anywhere no matter what wordpress.com blog am reading. Its a nice feature. I like it very much.
WordPress is the best in every way, that’s for sure. Keep growing…
Best smile,
Zeezat
June 4th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
WOW, thanks for those adds. They are awesome. This is just getting better and better.
June 4th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Fantastic, glad to see you are listening to us…
Now if you could just add some social networking widgets to allow people to book mark our entries we would really be cooking!
June 4th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
cool …
June 4th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
I love how we request the little stuff and it happens.
You guys ROCK!
Thanks heaps for this…
June 4th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
That is grat news.
June 4th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Nice!! Great Work WordPress!!
June 4th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
nice intuitive touch. skips a couple steps for me and i am sure others.
June 4th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Niiiiiiiiiiiice! ;-D
Thanks!
June 4th, 2008 at 3:39 pm
Nice, good to see the push for continual refinement.
June 4th, 2008 at 3:47 pm

June 4th, 2008 at 3:51 pm
Thanks WP. Actually, often I open the Stats first before doing other thing in WP admin pages.
June 4th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
Thanks
June 4th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
WOW! This is wonderful!
June 4th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
