From the top down, we&#8217;ve listened to your feedback and thought deeply about the design and the result is a WordPress that&#8217;s just plain faster. Nearly every task you do on your blog will <strong>take fewer clicks and be faster</strong> in 2.7 than it did in a previous version. (<a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">Download it now</a>, or read on for more.)</p>\n<p>Next you&#8217;ll begin to notice the new features subtly sprinkled through the new interface: the new dashboard that you can arrange with drag and drop to put the things most important to you on top, QuickPress, comment threading, paging, and the ability to reply to comments from your dashboard, the ability to install any plugin directly from WordPress.org with a single click, and sticky posts.</p>\n<p>Digging in further you might notice that every screen is customizable. Let&#8217;s say you never care about author on your post listings &#8212; just click &#8220;Screen Options&#8221; and uncheck it and it&#8217;s instantly gone from the page. The same for any module on the dashboard or write screen. If your screen is narrow and the menu is taking up too much horizontal room, click the arrow to minimize it to be icon-only, and then go to the write page and drag and drop everything from the right column into the main one, so your posting area is full-screen. (For example I like hiding everything except categories, tags, and publish. I put categories and tags on the right, and publish under the post box.)</p>\n<p>For a visual introduction to what 2.7 is, check out this video (available in HD, and full screen):</p>\n<p><object width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data=\"http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar\" /><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" /></object></p>\n<p>It&#8217;s all about you. It&#8217;s the next generation of WordPress, which is why we&#8217;ve bestowed it with the honor of being named for <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Coltrane\">John Coltrane</a>. <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">And you can download it today</a>.</p>\n<p>Last, but certainly not least, this may be the <strong>last time you ever have to manually upgrade WordPress again</strong>. We heard how tired you were of doing upgrades for yourself and your friends, so now WordPress includes a built-in upgrade that will automatically notify you of new releases, and when you&#8217;re ready it will download them, install them, and upgrade your blog with a single click.</p>\n<p>(As with any interface change it may take a little bit of time to acclimate yourself but soon you&#8217;ll find yourself whizzing through the screens. Even people who have hated it at first tell us after a few days they wonder how they got by before.)</p>\n<h3>The Story Behind 2.7</h3>\n<p>The real reason Coltrane is such a huge leap forward is because the community was so involved with every step of the process. <strong>Over 150 people contributed code directly to the release</strong>, our highest ever, with many tens of thousands more participating in the polls, surveys, tests, mailing lists, and other feedback mechanisms the WordPress dev team used in putting this release together.</p>\n<p>For some of the back story in the development of 2.7, check out these blog posts (thanks to <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection</a> for the list):</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/usability-testing-report-25-and-crazyhorse/\">Usability Testing Report: 2.5 and CrazyHorse</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/the-new-27-dashboard/\">The New 2.7 Dashboard</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/the-visual-design-of-27/\">The Visual Design of 2.7</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/wordpress-27-wireframes/\">WordPress 2.7 wireframes</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_2.7\">Comprehensive Codex Article on WordPress 2.7</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wpdevel.wordpress.com/author/jane/\">WordPress Development Updates from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2008/05/20/new-york-usability-testing/\">WordPress Usability Testing in New York</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://boren.nu/archives/2008/10/31/wordpress-27-ui-configurability/\">WordPress 2.7 UI Configurability from Ryan Boren</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2008/11/06/wordpress-27-feature-preview-customizable-post-editing-screen/\">Customizable Post Editing Screen from Mark Jaquith</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://jane.wordpress.com/2008/09/15/wordpress-27-navigation-survey/\">WordPress 2.7 Navigation Survey from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://jane.wordpress.com/2008/10/16/shortcutsfavorites-menu/\">Shortcuts/Favorites Menu from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.slideshare.net/edanzico/riding-the-crazyhorse-future-generation-wordpress-presentation\">CrazyHorse Presentation at WordCamp SF</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.centernetworks.com/wordpress-27-demo\">WordPress 2.7 Walkthrough by Matt</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.idratherbewriting.com/2008/09/27/wordpress-27-and-beyond-%E2%80%93-keynote-by-matt-mullenweg-at-wordcamp-utah-2008/\">WordPress 2.7 and beyond from Matt at WordCamp Utah</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>This was interesting to us, a blogging software release we actually blogged about, but the process was hugely informative. Prior to its release today Crazyhorse and 2.7 had been tested by tens of thousands of people on their blogs, hundreds of thousands of you count .com. The volume of feedback was so high that we decided to push back the release date a month to take time to incorporate it all and do more revisions based on what you guys said.</p>\n<p>For those of you wondering why we didn&#8217;t call this release 3.0, it&#8217;s because we abhor version number inflation. 3.0 will just be the next release after 2.9. The major features in new point releases approach also works well for products like OS X, with huge changes between a 10.3 and 10.4.</p>\n<h3>The Future</h3>\n<p>Those of you following along at home might have noticed this was our second major redesign of WordPress this year. Whoa nelly! While that wasn&#8217;t ideal, and I especially sympathize with those of you creating books or tutorials around WordPress, there&#8217;s good news. The changes to WordPress in 2.5 and 2.7 were necessary for us to break free of much of the legacy cruft and interface bloat that had built up over the years (gradually) and more importantly provide us with a UI framework and interface language we can use at the foundation to build tomorrow&#8217;s WordPress on, to express ideas we haven&#8217;t been able to before.

From the top down, we&#8217;ve listened to your feedback and thought deeply about the design and the result is a WordPress that&#8217;s just plain faster. Nearly every task you do on your blog will <strong>take fewer clicks and be faster</strong> in 2.7 than it did in a previous version. (<a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">Download it now</a>, or read on for more.)</p>\n<p>Next you&#8217;ll begin to notice the new features subtly sprinkled through the new interface: the new dashboard that you can arrange with drag and drop to put the things most important to you on top, QuickPress, comment threading, paging, and the ability to reply to comments from your dashboard, the ability to install any plugin directly from WordPress.org with a single click, and sticky posts.</p>\n<p>Digging in further you might notice that every screen is customizable. Let&#8217;s say you never care about author on your post listings &#8212; just click &#8220;Screen Options&#8221; and uncheck it and it&#8217;s instantly gone from the page. The same for any module on the dashboard or write screen. If your screen is narrow and the menu is taking up too much horizontal room, click the arrow to minimize it to be icon-only, and then go to the write page and drag and drop everything from the right column into the main one, so your posting area is full-screen. (For example I like hiding everything except categories, tags, and publish. I put categories and tags on the right, and publish under the post box.)</p>\n<p>For a visual introduction to what 2.7 is, check out this video (available in HD, and full screen):</p>\n<p><object width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data=\"http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar\" /><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" /></object></p>\n<p>It&#8217;s all about you. It&#8217;s the next generation of WordPress, which is why we&#8217;ve bestowed it with the honor of being named for <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Coltrane\">John Coltrane</a>. <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/\">And you can download it today</a>.</p>\n<p>Last, but certainly not least, this may be the <strong>last time you ever have to manually upgrade WordPress again</strong>. We heard how tired you were of doing upgrades for yourself and your friends, so now WordPress includes a built-in upgrade that will automatically notify you of new releases, and when you&#8217;re ready it will download them, install them, and upgrade your blog with a single click.</p>\n<p>(As with any interface change it may take a little bit of time to acclimate yourself but soon you&#8217;ll find yourself whizzing through the screens. Even people who have hated it at first tell us after a few days they wonder how they got by before.)</p>\n<h3>The Story Behind 2.7</h3>\n<p>The real reason Coltrane is such a huge leap forward is because the community was so involved with every step of the process. <strong>Over 150 people contributed code directly to the release</strong>, our highest ever, with many tens of thousands more participating in the polls, surveys, tests, mailing lists, and other feedback mechanisms the WordPress dev team used in putting this release together.</p>\n<p>For some of the back story in the development of 2.7, check out these blog posts (thanks to <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection</a> for the list):</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/usability-testing-report-25-and-crazyhorse/\">Usability Testing Report: 2.5 and CrazyHorse</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/the-new-27-dashboard/\">The New 2.7 Dashboard</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/the-visual-design-of-27/\">The Visual Design of 2.7</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/development/2008/10/wordpress-27-wireframes/\">WordPress 2.7 wireframes</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_2.7\">Comprehensive Codex Article on WordPress 2.7</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wpdevel.wordpress.com/author/jane/\">WordPress Development Updates from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2008/05/20/new-york-usability-testing/\">WordPress Usability Testing in New York</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://boren.nu/archives/2008/10/31/wordpress-27-ui-configurability/\">WordPress 2.7 UI Configurability from Ryan Boren</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2008/11/06/wordpress-27-feature-preview-customizable-post-editing-screen/\">Customizable Post Editing Screen from Mark Jaquith</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://jane.wordpress.com/2008/09/15/wordpress-27-navigation-survey/\">WordPress 2.7 Navigation Survey from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://jane.wordpress.com/2008/10/16/shortcutsfavorites-menu/\">Shortcuts/Favorites Menu from Jane Wells</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.slideshare.net/edanzico/riding-the-crazyhorse-future-generation-wordpress-presentation\">CrazyHorse Presentation at WordCamp SF</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.centernetworks.com/wordpress-27-demo\">WordPress 2.7 Walkthrough by Matt</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.idratherbewriting.com/2008/09/27/wordpress-27-and-beyond-%E2%80%93-keynote-by-matt-mullenweg-at-wordcamp-utah-2008/\">WordPress 2.7 and beyond from Matt at WordCamp Utah</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>This was interesting to us, a blogging software release we actually blogged about, but the process was hugely informative. Prior to its release today Crazyhorse and 2.7 had been tested by tens of thousands of people on their blogs, hundreds of thousands of you count .com. The volume of feedback was so high that we decided to push back the release date a month to take time to incorporate it all and do more revisions based on what you guys said.</p>\n<p>For those of you wondering why we didn&#8217;t call this release 3.0, it&#8217;s because we abhor version number inflation. 3.0 will just be the next release after 2.9. The major features in new point releases approach also works well for products like OS X, with huge changes between a 10.3 and 10.4.</p>\n<h3>The Future</h3>\n<p>Those of you following along at home might have noticed this was our second major redesign of WordPress this year. Whoa nelly! While that wasn&#8217;t ideal, and I especially sympathize with those of you creating books or tutorials around WordPress, there&#8217;s good news. The changes to WordPress in 2.5 and 2.7 were necessary for us to break free of much of the legacy cruft and interface bloat that had built up over the years (gradually) and more importantly provide us with a UI framework and interface language we can use at the foundation to build tomorrow&#8217;s WordPress on, to express ideas we haven&#8217;t been able to before. So at the end of 2009 I expect, interface-wise, WordPress to look largely the same as it does now.</p>\n<p>That said, we couldn&#8217;t be more excited about the future with regards to features. Now that we&#8217;ve cleared out more basic things, we are looking forward in the coming year to really tackling media handling including audio and video, better tools for plugin and theme developers, widgets, theme updates, more integrated and contextual help, and easier integration with projects like <a href=\"http://buddypress.org/\">BuddyPress</a> and <a href=\"http://bbpress.org/\">bbPress</a>.</p>\n<h3>Thank Yous</h3>\n<p>We would like to take a moment to thank the following WordPress.org users for being a part of 2.7: <a href=\"http://segert.net/\">Verena Segert</a>, <a href=\"http://www.fieldii.com/\">Ben Dunkle</a>, 082net, <a href=\"http://ckon.wordpress.com/\">_ck_</a>, <a href=\"http://technosailor.com/\">Aaron Brazell</a>, Aaron Campbell, Aaron Harp, aaron_guitar, abackstrom, <a href=\"http://alexrabe.boelinger.com/\">Alex Rabe</a>, <a href=\"http://flightpathblog.com/\">Alex Shiels</a>, anderswc, andr, <a href=\"http://azaozz.wordpress.com/\">Andrew Ozz</a>, andy, <a href=\"http://apeatling.wordpress.com/\">Andy Peatling</a>, <a href=\"http://ilfilosofo.com/\">Austin Matzko</a>, axelseaa, bendalton, <a href=\"http://extralogical.net/\">Benedict Eastaugh</a>, <a href=\"http://www.umaitech.com/\">Betsy Kimak</a>, <a href=\"http://www.burobjorn.nl/\">Björn Wijers</a>, <a href=\"http://bobrik.name/\">bobrik</a>, brianwhite, bubel, <a href=\"http://www.majordojo.com/\">Byrne Reese</a>, caesarsgrunt, capripot, <a href=\"http://maisonbisson.com/blog/\">Casey Bisson</a>, <a href=\"http://www.cefm.ca/\">Charles E.

So we wish all our readers a Happy and Prosperous New Year!</p>\n<p>Our little blog grew slowly but steadily in the last year and our editors, authors and well wishers have made it possible for us to not only provide you with the most useful and up to date WordPress news, but we have been able to organize and support our Annual <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/pluginblog/\">WordPress Plugin Competition</a>, have been able to visit a couple of <a href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamps</a> around the US and have started a couple of <a href=\"http://weblogtoolsvideos.com\">new</a> <a href=\"http://pressitfor.me\">services</a> around WordPress. If you want to know what the team is up to, be sure to check out the <a href=\"http://midout.com\">Weblog Tools Collection Crew LifeStream</a>.</p>\n<p>As always, we have been trying to improve our content, add more features and services, be good citizens of the WordPress world, all the while trying to increase our readership and our distribution.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>We have brought back the <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">Spanish Version of this blog</a>. It was originally started as a small side project along with a German version but we found it difficult to find human translators for them. This new version is translated by a paid translation service called <a href=\"http://www.icanlocalize.com/blog-translation.html\">ICanLocalize</a> and is using their custom designed WordPress plugin which we helped test and implement. I have to say that after having had such a hard time with translators in the past, I was very apprehensive of any such relationship. But Amir Helzer and his team of translators have not only been helpful, but they have shown dedication and care that is rare in this world of online business. The service is completely automatic and both comments and posts are automagically submitted for human translation through the plugin. Though the service is not cheap, it gives our blog a nice edge. So if you would like to read this blog in Spanish, please head over to <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection Español</a> and subscribe.</li>\n<li>We have made some changes to the <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/purchase.php?do=banner\">advertiser requirements</a> on this blog, much of which drastically reduces our revenue. We now require that all our advertisers who want to promote WordPress plugins and themes, release their themes and plugins under the GPL or a GPL compatible license to be eligible to advertise on Weblog Tools Collection and related properties. Existing ads will be forced to expire and will not be renewed. We will also not link to any work from Premium Theme and Plugin authors that do not release their themes and/or plugins under a GPL or compatible license.</li>\n<li>Jeff Chandler has restarted his <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/wordpress-weekly/\">WordPress Weekly</a> podcast under the auspices of Weblog Tools Collection and judging from the download numbers and the listener particpation numbers, it has been a resounding success.

This new version is translated by a paid translation service called <a href=\"http://www.icanlocalize.com/blog-translation.html\">ICanLocalize</a> and is using their custom designed WordPress plugin which we helped test and implement. I have to say that after having had such a hard time with translators in the past, I was very apprehensive of any such relationship. But Amir Helzer and his team of translators have not only been helpful, but they have shown dedication and care that is rare in this world of online business. The service is completely automatic and both comments and posts are automagically submitted for human translation through the plugin. Though the service is not cheap, it gives our blog a nice edge. So if you would like to read this blog in Spanish, please head over to <a href=\"http://es.weblogtoolscollection.com/\">WeblogToolsCollection Español</a> and subscribe.</li>\n<li>We have made some changes to the <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/wp-content/plugins/oiopub-direct/purchase.php?do=banner\">advertiser requirements</a> on this blog, much of which drastically reduces our revenue. We now require that all our advertisers who want to promote WordPress plugins and themes, release their themes and plugins under the GPL or a GPL compatible license to be eligible to advertise on Weblog Tools Collection and related properties. Existing ads will be forced to expire and will not be renewed. We will also not link to any work from Premium Theme and Plugin authors that do not release their themes and/or plugins under a GPL or compatible license.</li>\n<li>Jeff Chandler has restarted his <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/wordpress-weekly/\">WordPress Weekly</a> podcast under the auspices of Weblog Tools Collection and judging from the download numbers and the listener particpation numbers, it has been a resounding success. You can <a href=\"itpc://recordings.talkshoe.com/rss34224.xml\">subscribe to WordPress Weekly via iTunes</a>. Jeff has had put together some <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/19/2hr-interview-with-matt-mullenweg/\">fantastic</a> <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/20/wordpress-gone-social-buddypress/\">shows</a> for us already and we are excited to see what the new year holds in store.</li>\n<li>Ajay is re-starting his &#8220;A Plugin A Day&#8221; or <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/category/apad/\">APAD WordPress Plugin Reviews</a> which is always a lot of fun and is received well by our readers. We have received hundreds of applications to be considered for APAD and will be starting to publish them very soon.</li>\n<li>We will hold another WordPress Plugin Competition this year. But in addition to the Plugin Competition, if advertising picks up, we would also like to start a Weblog Tools Collection College Scholarship to promote WordPress development and help students dip their toe in WordPress. Stay tuned for further details.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>For all of us here at Weblog Tools Collection, our little endeavor is a painstaking labor of love. We love the attention but also love to receive feedback. To all of you who have sent us your comments and suggestions, we say thank you. We have paid close attention to all the suggestions and have tried to incorporate them into our world as best we can.</p>\n<p>We would also like to say thanks to our readers for making us your Number One source for WordPress and blogging news and to the WordPress team for producing this fantastic tool for us to use and enjoy.</p>\n<p>We raise our imaginary glasses in a toast to another great year of blogging with WordPress.</p>\";}i:20;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:59:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress Theme Releases for 12/31\";s:4:\"guid\";s:40:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/?p=4889\";s:4:\"link\";s:87:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/12/31/wordpress-theme-releases-for-1231/\";s:11:\"description\";s:2631:\"<p><a href=\"http://www.hellbiscuit.com/?p=86\"><strong>Gumball Special</strong></a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://themes.hellbiscuit.com/\"><img title=\"gumball\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/2008/12/gumball.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"gumball\" width=\"148\" height=\"114\" /></a></p>\n<p>Two column, gravatar ready, magazine style theme with custom image fields.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.dinpattern.com/pages/simply-ornate.php\"><strong>Simply Ornate</strong></a></p>\n<p><img title=\"simplyornate\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/2008/12/simplyornate.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"simplyornate\" width=\"164\" height=\"114\" /></p>\n<p>Two column, blue and black theme with support for Flickr, tabbed sidebar.

WordPress development happens at a record pace and trying to keep up with everything is a daunting task. However, the team here at WLTC does a great job filtering all of the WordPress related content on the web to bring the best to you. During the course of a year, this content adds up. Some of it being news posts, how-to guides, reviews, breaking news, etc. So, since it&#8217;s near the end of the year, I thought I would take a trip through the <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/narchives/\">WLTC Archive</a> and revisit come classic posts from 2008.</p>\n<p>This series is broken up into two parts. The first part covers the months of <strong>January-June</strong> while part two takes care of <strong>July-December</strong>.

Over the past few weeks, users have been publishing support questions which in many aspects, would be better served in the WordPress.org support forums. The problem with that is, the testers list is maintained and operated by people who have a knowledgeable background with the WordPress software, there are less users, and receiving answers is typically a speedier process.</p>\n<p>With this in mind, I&#8217;ve decided to whip up a guide on how to maximize the use of the WordPress.org forum. It&#8217;s not exactly as cut and dry as you would think. This list of steps was comprised mostly by Michael E. Hancock with additional tips provided by Otto and myself.</p>\n<p><strong>1.</strong> A new user may want to read the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/68664?replies=6\" target=\"_blank\">Forum Rules</a></p>\n<p><strong>2.</strong> Report inappropriate posts/threads by adding the &#8216;<strong>modlook</strong>&#8216; tag to that thread</p>\n<p><strong>3.</strong> Link to Codex article by using the wiki code of two beginning and ending brackets.  [[<strong>Template Hierarchy</strong>]] will create a link to that article in Codex.</p>\n<p><strong>4.</strong> Try to place your question in the correct Forum&#8211;if it is related to Plugins use the <strong>Plugins and Hacks Forum</strong>.</p>\n<p><strong>5.</strong> If needing to put a large code example in your thread, paste the code in a <a href=\"http://pastebin.com/\" target=\"_blank\">pastebin</a> and put the link to that code in the thread.</p>\n<p><strong>6.</strong> Click on <strong>View Your Profile</strong> to see all your threads. Note: Currently the Threads Started feature is broken.</p>\n<p><strong>7.</strong> You can initiate a forum topic from a particular plugin at the WordPress Extend Plugins site. At the bottom of each plugin page there is a &#8220;<strong>Write a new topic</strong>&#8221; link that displays a form to enter the topic and automatically creates a tag related to that specific plugin and automatically selects the <strong>Plugins and Hacks</strong> Forum.</p>\n<p><strong>8.</strong> A new topic is started by first selecting(entering)the particular Forum (e.g. Installation) and at the bottom of the screen, the New Topic form is displayed.</p>\n<p><strong>9.</strong> Use the Version box when starting a new topic.  If the Version isn&#8217;t listed, select <strong>Other</strong> and then type the Version in the box.</p>\n<p><strong>10.</strong> A tip from LesBessant - You can hide the tag cloud in Firefox by adding the file usercontent.css to the &#8230;\\Mozilla\\Firefox\\Profiles\\xxxxxx.default\\chrome folder.  Put this in the file:</p>\n<p>.frontpageheatmap, #hottags {<br />\n display: none;<br />\n }</p>\n<p><strong>11.</strong> Use the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/report-bugs/\" target=\"_blank\">Report a Site Bug link</a> at the bottom of the screen to report bugs with the forum software.</p>\n<p><strong>12.</strong> When creating a new topic, make the topic be descriptive and brief. &#8220;<strong>Help me now</strong>&#8221; is a poor topic.</p>\n<p><strong>13.</strong> If asking a question about a plugin or theme provide a link to download the plugin/theme.</p>\n<p><strong>14.</strong> Use meaningful tags.  Using the same tags as the topic isn&#8217;t very useful, but using keywords from the topic is good.</p>\n<p><strong>15.</strong> Make use of the search before starting a new topic. Also a Google search such as &#8220;<strong>wordpress plugin cforms</strong>&#8221; will return a good list of info about the Cforms plugin.</p>\n<p>Here is a tip provided by Otto42 - <strong>DON&#8217;T BUMP</strong>. Bumping makes your threads have a reply, which makes them not show up on the &#8220;<strong>threads without replies</strong>&#8221; list any more. Meaning that bumping actually decreases the chances of you getting any help.</p>\n<p>Here is a tip from me to you. If you end up resolving your problem, be sure to edit the post and mark it as resolved. I&#8217;ve forgotten to do this step several times but the good news is, you can always go back to those posts via your user profile and edit them.</p>\n<h2>Conclusion:</h2>\n<p>As has been discussed on the Testers mailing list, there are many things that can be done to improve the forum experience that are out of the control of end users. For example, an improved search. Based on what I&#8217;ve heard, the search for the Codex as well as the Forum and Plugin Repository has a good shot at being implemented before the release of WordPress 2.8. While on the subject of search, I think it would be nice if the forum search provided a set of Advanced options so that I could search the forum in all threads that have been marked as resolved. </p>\n<p>While BBPress is decent forum software (for now as Sam continues to work on version 1.0) I wonder if it&#8217;s the software of choice that meets the needs of the WordPress.org support forum. There is no private messaging, distinct thread/post filtering, etc. Not that every feature found within PHPBB3 or other forum software needs to be integrated into BBPress but I feel there is quite a bit missing at this point to provide a sound experience on the forum.</p>\n<p>With that said, I ask you, the community how we and the powers that be can improve the WordPress.org forum. I ask that you do not take this opportunity to vent your frustrations with particular users but instead, provide feedback and ideas on how to improve the system.</p>\";s:7:\"pubdate\";s:31:\"Sat, 03 Jan 2009 04:30:06 +0000\";s:2:\"dc\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";s:13:\"Jeff Chandler\";}s:7:\"summary\";s:5688:\"<p>A recent discussion has popped up on the <a href=\"http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-testers/2008-December/010841.html\">WordPress Testers mailing list</a> revolving around using the list as an area to receive support.

For more information, see these discussions on the WordPress Support Forums: <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/224042\" title=\"Blog hacked, host said to upgrade\">Blog hacked, host said to upgrade</a> and <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/219439\" title=\"WTF is remv.php in wp-content/themes folder\">WTF is remv.php in wp-content/themes folder</a>.</p>\n<h4>Weblog Tools Collection Changes Ad Policy to Favor GPL Themes and Plugins</h4>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.weblogtoolscollection.com/\" title=\"Weblog Tools Collection\" rel=\"tag\">Weblog Tools Collection</a> announces it will <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/01/01/shubho-nobo-borsho/\" title=\"Shubho Nobo Borsho!\">no longer accept ads from advertisers promoting non-GPL WordPress Themes and Plugins</a>. </p>\n<h4>Fake WordPress Malicious Site</h4>\n<p>Look out for a fake WordPress site. Wordpresz.org looks like the <a href=\"http://www.wordpress.org/\" title=\"WordPress\" rel=\"tag\">WordPress</a> site but isn&#8217;t. The version of WordPress you download has malicious code in the download that opens a backdoor to your blog. <a href=\"http://www.viper007bond.com/2008/11/07/there-is-no-such-thing-as-wordpress-264/\" title=\"Fake WordPress Upgrade\">If you upgraded WordPress to 2.6.4</a>, you are running a fake version. There is no WordPress 2.6.4. The latest version is WordPress 2.7, and in the 2.6 line, it is 2.6.5, skipping 2.6.4 due to this threat.</p>\n<h4>WordPress Events Coming Soon</h4>\n<p>Space if often limited for these WordPress Events, WordCamps, and blog events, so register early. </p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/185/calendar/9294165/\" title=\"Toronto WordPress - WordCamp Toronto January Meetup\">Toronto WordPress Meetup - January 3, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/184/calendar/9088229/\" title=\"Installing &amp; Upgrading to 2.7\">Atlanta WordPress 2.7 Party - Installing and Upgrading - January 6, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/The-New-Jersey-WordPress-Meetup-Group/calendar/9304141/\" title=\"The New Jersey WordPress January Meetup\">The New Jersey WordPress January Meetup - January 7, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://lasvegaswordcamp.com/\" title=\"WordCamp Las Vegas 2009\">WordCamp Las Vegas 2009 - Las Vegas, Nevada - January 10-11, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/LasVegasWordPress/calendar/9387058/\" title=\"Happy Hour after WordCamp\">Happy Hour after WordCamp Las Vegas - January 10, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1438166/\" title=\"Los Angeles WordPress Users Group at Philippe\'s French Dip\">Los Angeles WordPress Users Group - January 11, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/SF-WordPress-Users/calendar/9311336/\" title=\"Search Engine Optimization for WordPress\">South Florida WordPress Meetup Group - Pompano Beach - Search Engine Optimization for WordPress - January 15, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.wordcampindonesia.com/\" title=\"WordCamp Indonesia 2009\">WordCamp Indonesia 2009 - Jakarta, Indonesia - January 17-18, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/boston-wordpress-meetup/calendar/9401039/\" title=\"Boston WordPress Kick-off\">Boston WordPress Meetup - Boston, Massachusetts - January 19, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/wordpressnyc/calendar/9258373/\" title=\"The Strategy of Content Publishing\">New York WordPress Meetup Group - WordPress as a CMS: The Strategy of Content Publishing - January 20, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordcampwhistler.com/\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler 2009\">WordCamp Whistler 2009 - Whistler, BC, Canada - January 24, 2009</a> (<a href=\"http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=32574477561\" title=\"WordCamp Whistler\">Facebook</a>)</li>\n<li><a href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/186/calendar/9394147/\" title=\"Toronto WordPress January Meetup\">Toronto WordPress Meetup - January 24, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/mywplife/calendar/9380790/\" title=\"The Chicago WordPress January Meetup\">Chicago WordPress January Meetup - January 24, 2009</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"http://www.meetup.com/dfwwordpress/calendar/9369639/\" title=\"The Dallas/Ft.

A sample of the topics covered would be:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plugins</li>\n<li>Hooks</li>\n<li>Advanced WordPress administration and automation</li>\n<li>Themes</li>\n<li>Advanced theme tricks</li>\n</ul>\n<p>It would be part reference, part walkthrough.</p>\n<p>If this book were available, and you are in the market described above, how much (if anything) would you be willing to pay for such a book?</p>\n <a href=\"http://answers.polldaddy.com/poll/1234366/\">View Poll</a>\n<p>Thanks for your participation!</p>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/delicious/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/stumble/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/digg/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\" /></a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/reddit/markjaquith.wordpress.com/238/\" /></a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=markjaquith.wordpress.com&blog=316&post=238&subd=markjaquith&ref=&feed=1\" /></div>\";}i:40;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:120:\"WordPress Podcast: Episode 49: WordPress 2.7 released, Oxite, Blog World Expo and New Media Expo to merge, Pownce closes\";s:4:\"guid\";s:30:\"http://wp-community.org/?p=309\";s:4:\"link\";s:132:\"http://wp-community.org/2008/12/30/episode-49-wordpress-27-released-oxite-blog-world-expo-and-new-media-expo-to-merge-pownce-closes/\";s:11:\"description\";s:718:\"One of our former co-hosts, David Peralty, joins us as a special guest for this episode as we discuss:\n\nWordPress 2.7 was released\nMicrosoft enters the Open Source blogware world with Oxite\nNew Media Expo merges with Blog World Expo\nWordPress Theme Repository purged of hundreds of themes\nSix Apart shuts down Pownce\nDates announced for WordCamp San Francisco 2009, WordCamp [...]<p>Published at: <a href=\"http://wp-community.org\">The WordPress Community</a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wp-community.org/2008/12/30/episode-49-wordpress-27-released-oxite-blog-world-expo-and-new-media-expo-to-merge-pownce-closes/\">Episode 49: WordPress 2.7 released, Oxite, Blog World Expo and New Media Expo to merge, Pownce closes</a></p>\";s:7:\"pubdate\";s:31:\"Tue, 30 Dec 2008 05:15:40 +0000\";s:2:\"dc\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";s:37:\"Charles Stricklin and Jonathan Bailey\";}s:7:\"summary\";s:718:\"One of our former co-hosts, David Peralty, joins us as a special guest for this episode as we discuss:\n\nWordPress 2.7 was released\nMicrosoft enters the Open Source blogware world with Oxite\nNew Media Expo merges with Blog World Expo\nWordPress Theme Repository purged of hundreds of themes\nSix Apart shuts down Pownce\nDates announced for WordCamp San Francisco 2009, WordCamp [...]<p>Published at: <a href=\"http://wp-community.org\">The WordPress Community</a></p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wp-community.org/2008/12/30/episode-49-wordpress-27-released-oxite-blog-world-expo-and-new-media-expo-to-merge-pownce-closes/\">Episode 49: WordPress 2.7 released, Oxite, Blog World Expo and New Media Expo to merge, Pownce closes</a></p>\";}i:41;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:67:\"Lorelle on WP: WordPress.com Bloggers Get New Support and Help Site\";s:4:\"guid\";s:36:\"http://lorelle.wordpress.com/?p=3494\";s:4:\"link\";s:92:\"http://lorelle.wordpress.com/2008/12/27/wordpresscom-bloggers-get-new-support-and-help-site/\";s:11:\"description\";s:8391:\"<div class=\"snap_preview\"><br /><p><a href=\"http://lorelle.wordpress.com/tag/wordpressdotcom/\" title=\"WordPressdotcom news and tips\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/wordpressdotcomnews.gif\" alt=\"WordPress.com News\" align=\"right\" /></a><a href=\"http://www.wordpress.com/\" title=\"WordPress.com free blogs\" rel=\"tag\">WordPress.com</a> bloggers now have a new resource for help: the <a href=\"http://support.wordpress.com/\" title=\"help pages\">WordPress Help Pages</a>. </p>\n<p><a title=\"New Resources, Holiday Hours\" href=\"http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2008/12/23/support-updates-new-resources-holiday-hours/\">Heather of the WordPress.com Support Team announced</a> the new WordPress.com support.

Now that it&#8217;s available (almost <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/download/counter/\">600,000 downloads</a> as I write this!), it&#8217;s time to start working on 2.8. There were dozens of things that got tabled during 2.7 due to time constraints, and there are a lot of high-rated features in the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas\">Ideas forum</a>, so there are a lot of potential features under consideration.</p>\n<p>Right now, the lead developers are thinking the top priorities for 2.8 will be widget management, theme browser/installer and performance upgrades. The rest of the development time will be taken up with bug tickets and additional features/enhancements from a prioritized list. To that end, we&#8217;ve posted <a href=\"http://www.polldaddy.com/s/6FC3E15CDE20B5B5/\">a new survey</a> for you to help us prioritize features for 2.8. The list pulls from the developers&#8217; &#8220;2.7 leftovers&#8221; list as well as the most popular features from the Ideas forum. Just rank each feature and tell us your top pick (up to three). You also have the option of adding comments or additional suggestions, but this is not mandatory. For your response to count, you must rank all of the features in the list. The survey has only one page.  </p>\n<p>Note that media features are not included in this list as we will be posting a separate survey for media-specific features soon. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.polldaddy.com/s/6FC3E15CDE20B5B5/\">Cast your votes</a> any time this week, but as always the sooner the better. This survey will close at noon on December 31, 2008 UTC.</p>\n<p>In the new year, we will be reviving scheduled IRC developer chats, where the lead developers will discuss the week&#8217;s progress on feature development, providing opportunities for people to ask questions or make suggestions. These will be held early in the day on Wednesdays (U.S. Wednesday), and the specific time will be posted here on the development blog once it&#8217;s been finalized. </p>\n<p>As a related aside, we spent a significant amount of time during 2.7 development sifting through Trac tickets that really shouldn&#8217;t have been there. Feature ideas and requests do not belong in Trac, they belong in the Ideas forum. Please reserve Trac for reporting bugs and things that need fixing (typos, code enhancements, etc.). If you are asking for a new UI, a new feature, or a new approach to coding something, that&#8217;s not an enhancement, it&#8217;s a new feature. New features will be entered into Trac by developers once it has been determined that the feature should be included in core. To help speed up development, moving forward we will close Trac tickets that are actually feature requests, with the comment that they should be posted in the Ideas forum instead. Please help the developers maximize their time by following this guideline. </p>\n<p>Thanks for your help!</p>\";s:7:\"pubdate\";s:31:\"Wed, 24 Dec 2008 00:17:58 +0000\";s:2:\"dc\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";s:10:\"Jane Wells\";}s:7:\"summary\";s:2976:\"<p>Everyone knows by now that WordPress 2.7 is packed with new features.

The survey has only one page.  </p>\n<p>Note that media features are not included in this list as we will be posting a separate survey for media-specific features soon. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://www.polldaddy.com/s/6FC3E15CDE20B5B5/\">Cast your votes</a> any time this week, but as always the sooner the better. This survey will close at noon on December 31, 2008 UTC.</p>\n<p>In the new year, we will be reviving scheduled IRC developer chats, where the lead developers will discuss the week&#8217;s progress on feature development, providing opportunities for people to ask questions or make suggestions. These will be held early in the day on Wednesdays (U.S. Wednesday), and the specific time will be posted here on the development blog once it&#8217;s been finalized. </p>\n<p>As a related aside, we spent a significant amount of time during 2.7 development sifting through Trac tickets that really shouldn&#8217;t have been there. Feature ideas and requests do not belong in Trac, they belong in the Ideas forum. Please reserve Trac for reporting bugs and things that need fixing (typos, code enhancements, etc.). If you are asking for a new UI, a new feature, or a new approach to coding something, that&#8217;s not an enhancement, it&#8217;s a new feature. New features will be entered into Trac by developers once it has been determined that the feature should be included in core. To help speed up development, moving forward we will close Trac tickets that are actually feature requests, with the comment that they should be posted in the Ideas forum instead. Please help the developers maximize their time by following this guideline. </p>\n<p>Thanks for your help!</p>\";}i:46;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:28:\"Matt: Killing Silicon Valley\";s:4:\"guid\";s:20:\"http://ma.tt/?p=9817\";s:4:\"link\";s:44:\"http://ma.tt/2008/12/killing-silicon-valley/\";s:11:\"description\";s:669:\"<p><a href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122990472028925207.html\">Washington Is Killing Silicon Valley</a>, an editorial from the Wall Street Journal.
