The other day, a Wordpress theme developer send me a theme he had created, and asked that I review it here. I checked out his theme, and emailed him back with a few questions about how to change font sizes and customize the theme. I never heard back from him. To me, at least, that’s [...]
Mike Durkin and his talented team at Solostream have released an exciting new theme for Wordpress blogs that brings visual appeal, easy customization and dynamic interactivity … all without a user needing to learn code or css. The new theme is called WP-Jazz 1.0.
Here are a few of the features:

We had a time change just now in America, from standard time to daylight savings time. While most computers handle such time changes automatically, Wordpress software that drives blogs does not. It is a manual change but takes just a minute.
Sign-in, and go to Settings, General. Look for Time Zone. In America, it’s a minus [...]
With the latest version – 1.4.2 – of the popular Thesis theme for Wordpress blogs is a very appealing option to create “Features and Highlights.” In addition to the standard blog look of postings listed on the page, Thesis permits one or several Feature stories, followed by Highlights.

Oh, did I also share that they said a cpu usage spike by a [...]

Believe it or not, there are robotic hacking programs that can invade a blog or Web site in seconds, and cause serious damage.

For a while, I thought it was just me … that I was having bad Web hosting karma. But, I have learned that many bloggers encounter issues with unreliable or inconsistent hosting service and empty advertising claims from Web hosting companies.
I once used a Web hosting company that had U.S. flag icons pasted all over [...]
Wordpress 2.7.1 has been released. It is an extremely easy update for any self-hosted Wordpress blog.
Simply sign-in, and you will see a notice to upgrade to version 2.7.1. You are given a choice to update automatically (highly preferred), or to download and upgrade manually. I use the former, and Wordpress updates automatically in less than [...]
Thanks to Mike Durkin, head of Solostream (and @solostream on Twitter), I have just had a chance to test drive the new, updated WP-Vybe theme from Solostream for Wordpress.
I began using the original Vybe theme a couple of years ago, and love it. You can see examples at BoomerCafe.com and DavidHenderson.com. The colors are rich, [...]
