Thesis 1.8, released last week, brings some nice new functionality and a missed opportunity. Affiliate alert: I’m an affiliate for Thesis, which means that if you buy it by clicking one of the links on this site I get a bit of beer money. See my disclosure for more details.

‘I can’t find any WordPress themes I like so I’m going to build my own’ is a statement I see a lot on places like Twitter. If you’re an ace coder (really ace) with a good understanding of SEO (really good), that’s a great route to follow. There’s also the option of using Artisteer, a [...]

Yes – my getting-rid-of-plugins crusade just got another boost, thanks to the latest version of Thesis. Please note: I give you both the good and the bad in my reviews (including this one), but I’m an affiliate for Thesis and that means I will get some commission if you were to buy Thesis through the [...]

I upgraded to the official release of Thesis 1.5 over the weekend – here are some thoughts. Full disclosure up front: I’m an affiliate for Thesis. The official release of Thesis 1.5 must have been one of the longest drawn out sagas of any recent major product upgrade – there were seven (yes 7!) 1.5 [...]

My friend Bob Hartman pointed me in the direction of the Open Hook plugin for Thesis yesterday – and what a discovery it was. For me, that is – Bob already knew about it. I’ve written elsewhere about the Thesis theme and mentioned that, in order to maximize its powerful capabilities, one of the things [...]

I often see questions from people asking for the best free WordPress themes, or the best premium WordPress themes. Clearly ‘best’ is dependent on the target market of your blog, its content and the image you want to portray. For some, a Hello Kitty theme would hit all the right buttons. But that wouldn’t be [...]

The last WordPress theme you’ll ever need. Bit of an extravagant claim, I know, but consider this: The Thesis theme for WordPress has been designed from the ground up specifically to enable non-techie users to customise and change the look of their site at will.
