WordPress 4.7 Provides Improved Customization

WordPress 4.7 was released on December 6, providing the tens of millions of internet users that rely on it, with a long list of new features.

As always with every new major WordPress milestone, there is a new theme. For WordPress 4.7 the new theme is Twenty Seventeen, which provides users with video headers and features images.

Going a step further are improvements to the theme customizer, giving users even more control (though to be fair, WordPress has provided lots of customization options for a long time already). While menu building has also long been part of WordPress, the another promise of the 4.7 release is for a smoother menu building process.
