This version fixes a few problems I found with navigation – sometimes I was using the wrong template tags, sometimes I just didn’t have the navigation stuff in the right place. Hopefully it’s all fixed now.

Next, as I noted in the previous post, I think it makes sense to link to fancy author pages whenever possible. So, I added code to the comment function to link to logged-in commenters’ author pages.

In addition to refining the author template a bit, I added some code to display links to Facebook and Twitter if the user has entered those. You’ll need a separate plugin to add those fields to their profile, such as Twitter Profile Field or Profilo.

This version adds the quick posting thing I mentioned in an earlier post, with some tweaks based on how it’s been working at my group blog. It’s fun and popular, but we decided to keep the quick posts separate from the regular posts, putting them in a sidebar block instead. Not much else has changed – just a couple of fixes to the archives.

I’ve been using a hacked-together combination of the two WordPress default themes and some group-oriented customizations at my own family blog for a while now. It took some work to clean it up for release, and there are probably some bugs left to work out, but here it is. I turned it on here for fun, but I’ll probably make a different version based on it for this site…I miss the horizontal menu. Some of the main features include:

• Widget-friendly sidebar
• Avatars all over the place
• Threaded comments
• Theme options page
• Optional sidebar login form
• Optional random headers
• A LOT of reminders and links for users to log in
• Automatically uses Compact Archives if it’s installed
• Automatically uses Most Commented if it’s installed
