Genesis What's New Info

Easy access of the Genesis What’s New Admin overview page – not only on updates but everytime. Makes sense, heh? 🙂

Get Access to Genesis What’s New Admin Page

This simple & lightweight plugin has currently only one task: bring you access to the “What’s New” page for Genesis Framework. You can access it everytime in the left-hand admin menu under “Genesis > What’s New”. (Before this plugin it did only show up when you did an auto update of Genesis.)

Please note: The plugin requires the Genesis Theme Framework, a paid premium product released by StudioPress/ WPEngine, Inc. (via studiopress.com).

Idea Behind / Philosophy

Really simple stuff: bring a link to an already existing Genesis admin page to the left-hand admin menu. Result: “Genesis > What’s New”
