Blog Design: May 2006 Archives

Devlounge has been running a very interesting series of articles on customising Wordpress:

• Customizing Wordpress: Headers
• Customizing Wordpress: Layout
• Customizing Wordpress: Advanced

While looking for some information on wordpress tags I came across this rather interesting extension for Dreamweaver:

With this extension a toolbar is added in Dreamweaver which you can use for inserting WordPress template tags into your theme files. If a tag has parameters, you’ll be asked to fill in a wizard.

Pretty nifty!

Ken mentioned a new adsense optimised theme for Wordpress - Ads Minded It looks pretty interesting:

* Wordpress 1.5 & 2.0+ compatible * XHTML compatible codes * W3C CSS compatible codes * 3 columns with an optional square advertisement (Shows on main page) on top of the sidebars * Search engine friendly and easy advertisement placement * Comes with a few useful plugins written by me and others

The fact that it works with both WP 1.5 and 2.0 is a bonus for bloggers still running the 1.5 series
