Ah, all I use is sidebar stuff. Just the javascript widgets that Delicious and Flickr spit out when you configure them there, then my css here styling them.

re q2: what javascript deal are you using? I’m talking about something that allows me to post links as a post, not in the sidebar. My sidebar code works fine, but flickr, ecto and delicious are all throwing up on my xmlrpc.php file. I’ll have to keep looking.

@Bryan: The answer to your first question is Yes. Details to follow in another post.

The answer to your second question is: The delicious and Flickr widgets I use are both javascript deals, and not php-based plugins. I’m guessing that matters, but I don’t know for sure.

Very nice. Did you design this yourself?

One thing I noticed with the upgrade was the xmlrpc.php wasn’t working with services like delicious, flickr and ecto. Did you find a workaround for this?

The biggest snag with 2.1 was just checking my older plugins to make sure they played nice. I switched to some newer stuff and updated every plugin, and I’ve had to ditch my favorite stats toy, because it hasn’t been supported or updated for months. In the market for a new one if you see anything good…

Okay, so make that all three of us…I like the new look. Much cleaner. The previous version was getting busy.

I’m going to the SF WordPress meetup in a couple weeks, so I suspect I’ll hear all about 2.1…and how soon it’ll be trickling down to those of us in the cheap seats.

Yes, there’s a bit of wonkiness in the comment form in Safari for sure, and perhaps IE6?

And I do realize if you’re using a Mac, all the bold Verdana — especially the lighter-colored stuff — comes across pretty blown out. I’ll think about doing something different there, maybe test Helvetica with the same styling and see what happens.

Looks nice … still have a small CSS bug with your comment form … but overall, very nice work.
