Workflow change after hitting Publish button

  • I do not like the change in workflow in 2.7 in the Write Post screen.

    I publish many articles in bulk, in a single sitting.

    In prior versions, hitting the Publish button would refresh the screen with a new, blank Write Post form. (There were a few exceptions, depending on how you clicked into Write a New Post, but the most common method worked this way.)

    Now, hitting the Publish button causes the screen to refresh with the Write Post screen of the post just published. I have to click New Post in order to get a blank Write Post form.

    This greatly slows my workflow. Is there a workaround? I cannot find a setting to change, so I assume it’s in the code.

    Please save me many hours each month by finding a way to restore this functionality.

    Many thanks (and I love nearly all of WP 2.7 otherwise!).

  • …I’m looking for a workaround for this also.

    Agreed, please fix this, it annoys the life out of me.

    I’m very interested to this.
    Did someone find a workaround for this?
    Thanks.

    Here is a hack to redirect to the New Post screen once you hit Publish.

    1. Find post.php in the wp-admin folder.
    2. Go to line 52 and comment out this line: $location = add_query_arg( 'message', 6, get_edit_post_link( $post_ID, 'url' ) );
    3. Add this code below: $location = "post-new.php";
