Great thanks! Looking forward to the new features and changes. Also could you suggest a good related post plugin that would gel with the theme. I used a few but none gel into the theme. They look glaring. I used one [Contextual related post plugin] which was very decent and simple. Somehow it recognized epigraph as a separate section or something and I had two related post list on the post. One next to the epigraph and the other at the end of the post.

@Rohin There are a bunch of footnotes plugins out there, but I’m not going to offer a two column layout in this theme. You are, of course, free to hack/change it however you like.

As for future WP feature compatibility, I’m not really interested in adding post thumbnails, as I can’t see them fitting in with the philosophy of the theme. I will likely add support for the new menus from 3.0 though.

@Matt: I had so much fun working with your theme and have got it almost close to what I wanted. except a couple of issues. I write a lot of poetry which sometimes does not adhere well to the website layout. I sometimes feel it would be great to have a two column layout for writing my columns with pictures and also the ability to add Footnote to my blogs in case I want to refer to some other website or blog, but then again thats just me.

However I have a question for you? Come wordpress 3.0 a lot of tweeks are being made, as to how menu are managed and how the images are managed(Some of the changes came through in 2.9.2). Would you be updating the theme to incorporate these new features? Would love to use an updated version which use these enhanced features.

Hi,

Downloaded the theme from Wordpress and its great, really good ideology behind it. Even better, it was free but it did the job and got me to come to your site.

I don’t think its particularly suited to my type of business but i don’t care and i’m gonna use it anyway.

I wanted more control of the fonts and positioning though (para indents) and wondered who i can access the CSS file.

Thanks and great work,

Runako

Thanks for the fix for #2. It looks okay now.

As for #1, the regular order of the comments should be K.L. Richardsson - me - K.P. Kincaid - me. Right now it’s KLR - KPK - me (in response to KPK) - me (in response to KLR). If you look at the comments’ times, they’re off.

Was there a glitch in WP itself that messed up the comments sequence? I previewed the same post with the comments using other themes, and the sequence came out okay.

@Hayden As for #1, there doesn’t appear to be a problem. As for #2, it looks like WP Typography is inserting a span inside the title attribute. Before I put out a fix, you can easily just turn off the “Wrap acronyms (all capitals) …” feature in WP Typography’s settings.

Hi Matt,

This is a gorgeous theme, and I’m using it right now. I have a couple of questions, though.

1. The comments on this page don’t follow the posting sequence, i.e., my response to K.L. Richardsson came before K.P. Kincaid’s comment, so I was wondering if there’s something I need to tweak so that the order of the comments actually reflect the sequence in which they were posted.

2. On my home page, the bottom left post has a weird link in place of the plain “Read more”. Is it because the text breaks off in the middle of a blockquote?

Thanks so much for your time and help!
