As part of the auto update we pushed this morning, mixed in with the minor bug fixes, we also made one fairly noticeable improvement in the ProPhoto user interface.

Before build #948, in the WordPress admin area new/edit post/page screens, we inserted three buttons to give you access to ProPhoto-specific media actions, see image below:

The old interface had a couple problems:

• it didn’t play nice with plugins that were also trying to add buttons in this same area (like Gravity Forms, and several others)
• the buttons wrapped awkwardly when the browser window was too narrow
• it didn’t leave us hardly any room to add more buttons for future features
• the buttons generally looked like poo

So, to address those issues, we replaced the old buttons, with a sleek new simple dropdown that matches the style of the ProPhoto customize page:

The new interface fixes all of the problems with the old buttons:

• buttons no longer look like poo
• plays nice with plugins
• doesn’t wrap awkwardly
• gives us room to add more features/functionality in the future
• visually matches other ProPhoto admin elements
