This post is just a heads up to let everyone know that the WordPress Hacks theme has been updated with a few new features added, courtesy of my friends at Blog Design Studio. Some you will notice right away, while others you may not.
Here are the notable changes included with this new update:
- Threaded Comments – Now that the discussions have increased in the comments of our posts, I felt that it was important to support threaded comments, which became available way back when WordPress 2.7 was released. You can now reply to individual comments without them falling all the way to the bottom of the page.
- Twitter Integration – Twitter is quickly replacing FeedDemon as my “feed reader” of choice, and I know I’m not the only one. As a result, I felt it was important to integrate Twitter into the WPHacks.com design. You’ll now find recent tweets in the sidebar, a tweet this button below each of our posts, and the comments section now supports the Tweetbacks plugin, displaying your tweets about WordPress Hacks content.
- Author Profiles – Single pages now display author profile information below each post. If you have written for us in the past and have your own author page, you may want to contact me to request I update the information, or you can login to your author account and update your profile page!
The remaining changes were mostly “under the hood” things done to clean up the code a little bit and make sure everything was running smoothly. If you have any questions or notice anything that isn’t appearing correctly, please let me know!















Congratulation for the new improvements
Test the comment thread. This thread is so cool!
Testing it again
On a real side note… Great addition with the threaded comments, I really like it when blogs use and take advantage of threaded comments, it makes the interaction that much better in the comments section, it almost makes it feel like a more personal 1 on 1 interaction, and kinda of like a forum.
Till then,
Jean

Threaded comments are a great addition. Visitors will really appreciate it. And with twitter becoming so popular, the integrated twitter feature is a great idea.
