This is the Summer edition of WangenWeb Weekly Digest.
This summer on WangenWeb
I started the summer with announcing I would take a blogging break, but wasn’t able to do that entirely.
WordPreciouss
WordPreciousss has been update twice this summer and latest edition is version 3.1.1, which also comes in a plugin only edition.
I’ve also created several themes for WordPreciousss this summer:
- Alternative version of Precious, to use with the plugin only version.
- Faded Pink - Which is special made for the WordPreciousss
- And I’ve ported WordPress’ default themes to work with the plugin
I’ve also written a couple tutorials for WordPreciousss this summer:
- Custom page- and single templates in WordPreciousss: How custom page templates work in WordPreciousss and the special feature for the plugin: custom single templates.
- Adding support for WordPreciousss in normal themes: How to add support for the plugin in a normal WordPress theme
