• Post classes
• Sticky posts

Version 1.3.1 ² has all these implemented. Other stuff you'll see in this version are an additional 620px content width layout option to choose from and a modified search widget.

Notes:

1. Comment features need to be activated in the Settings > Discussion panel for them to be functional.
2. 1.3.1 is backward compatible up to WordPress 2.5. It has all the right stuff to be working on WP 2.3 as well, but hasn't thoroughly been tested on.

Looking around for ways to make the theme more user friendly, I noticed some of you
- were unable to accommodate ads properly in the sidebars
- wanted to embed external objects like videos and photo galleries
- or just wanted to show some 'About' or 'Intro' text at the top spanning across two columns.

Also some of you wanted a wider content column,
- maybe to display bigger images
- or just to show more content above the fold.

The biggest change I'd like to tell you about in version 1.3 is the introduction of Theme Options page. Without overdoing the whole options thing, I've created the options which I thought were very essential.

Among all the options I consider the "Layout Options" to be the most important. By using a combination of the two "Layout Options" i.e 'content width' and 'no. of sidebars' in the "PrimePress Options" page you'll be able to choose a set-up that should meet your needs.

Other options eliminate the need to hack up the theme template files and let you

• enter your custom FeedBurner feed URL
• type in your FeedBurner ID to activate email subscription link
• give you some control over the main navigation tabs

Earlier on, I assumed support through comments would be sufficient for PrimePress. I was wrong. Support process is getting way too dis-organized and it's getting increasingly hard to find the right info under the relevent post.

Heck!… I myself am finding it hard to locate some of my answers, let alone the users.

So to simplify the support process, I've set up the support forums… to make it much more efficient and easier for both you & me. I request you to ask your PrimePress support questions in the forums.

Thank You

A WordPress theme with thorough coding and Design that is close to "having 'em all" while still leaving room for cutomizability was the main goal here.

Behind the Scenes

All the WordPress bloggers out there, by using a well coded theme and writing well structured blog posts that are accessible and standards compliant, you make the web a better place. And for that you are rewarded with search engines indexing your posts more accurately and that results in a better visibility in web searches.

PrimePress has been developed taking all these things into consideration and features a strong code architecture that is valid, simple and efficient with maximum internal SEO. It is high on accessibility and features a rich semantic markup achieved by implementing microformats.

What you See

A killer architecture isn't worth much without a good design. You wouldn't even be here if you weren't looking for a good one. Well... In this case, painful attention to details & obsessive tweaking have resulted in a final overall design that is pleasing & well-balanced while still being content centric. Every care has been taken not to leave any element un-styled.

We all heard the mantra "Content is King". As trite as it may sound, it still holds true. And one aspect that can solely make the content come across loud and clear is... good Typography. More often than not typography takes a backseat in many design projects and doesn't get the attention it deserves. With each element styled with uttermost care, typography in PrimePress has been setup to follow a certain rhythm so as to enhance the screen readability to its best.
