DISQUS

Hare are all the WordPress plugins that I am currently using.

Andrew, I'll do it soon in one of my sidenote posts.

I have 28, Andrew. Luckily 900px of screen height with maximized browser window is just about enough to fit in that amount of links in the drop-right menu.

Lets test this Disqus thing. Can I post code here?


foreach ($this_sidebar as $_widget_id) {
$widget_info = explode('-', $_widget_id);

if ('tabbedsidebar' == $widget_info[0] && is_numeric($widget_info[1])) {
if (!in_array($_widget_id, $_POST['widget-id'])) {
// Remove widget as it was delted
unset($this->adminOptions['widget_settings'][$widget_info[1]]);
// Remove also the sidebar which was a placeholder for tabbed widgets
unregister_sidebar($_widget_id);
}
}
}


I would never use a third-party comment thing. Mainly because of the reason you stated -- they don't offer anything that can not be accomplished locally.

I also consider comments a personal matter and the privacy issues that arise because of every comment going through a 3rd-party service might put off some of the readers (although most of them are probably unaware of that fact).

Andrew, you have given me the reason to try and install it. I'll give it a try right now and will report back in a while.

The new shortcode feature with such beautiful charts is really amazing.

Thanks for the archive links, that was really quick. Previously I simply went to the browser's address bar and truncated the URL to include only the year. Archive links will definitely make it a lot easier :)

Andrew, I am really fascinated by your extremely precise and well put definition of a minimalistic design:

the point at which everything you want and need is available, but somehow hidden until you need it. Where nothing exists without purpose, and everything that exists is something you both need and want.

You reveal the very core of the design and this is what many people are even not aware of when trying to make their "design" judgments. Like you said -- even a single article on a blank page can have a dozen of reasons for the way elements are organized and laid out.

I am really looking forward to follow your ideas behind every step of this theme design process.

p.s. one suggestion: it is currently really hard to get to your earlier posts on this blog because there is only a category based navigation available. Could you, please, add a monthly archive widget to the sidebar? Cheers!

Hi, Andrew. Do you know about the Golder Ratio or Golden Section? It have worked very well for me.
