WordPress 2.7 Threaded Comments Works In Thesis

April 27, 2009 · 81 comments

Regular readers of GrowMap will be happy to know that Derek turned on WP 2.7 threaded comments. For those who may be interested in using this feature here is some information on who can immediately use this particular method of allowing specific comments to be answered.

In his excellent post Seven Great Examples of Using WP 2.7 Threaded Comments Jeff Chandler at Performancing shared this:

“With the public release of WordPress 2.7, end users now have the ability to enable threaded conversations to take place on their blog. However, your theme must support this ability before you can turn them on.”

Some free and advanced themes already support this feature and many others will not. If yours doesn’t read How to Implement Threaded Comments in WordPress Themes for how to tell if your Theme supports it and what to do if it doesn’t. If you need more assistance visit the WordPress Support Forum.

This is yet another reason we installed Thesis and why I recommend serious bloggers consider doing the same. WordPress and plugins get updated all the time and every change is another potential technical issue. By using Thesis we know that our theme is supported and fixes for any issue will be provided.

Every theme can be customized and all features can have a different look. The Seven Great Examples post mentioned above shows just a few of the changes you can make. I wonder how many new bloggers realize that the look of a site is laid on top of the Theme being used so every implementation of any feature or Theme can look totally different. For example, all of these sites are built on Thesis:

No matter which theme you are currently using as soon as you start getting a large number of comments you will wish you had threaded comments installed. If your theme does not support the new WP 2.7 version you can use a plugin, contact the theme designer and ask if they’re planning to add support, or – if you’re the do-it-yourself type – use the links we have provided in this post to add it.

If you are considering upgrading your theme we can highly recommend Thesis. Most of the major blogs about blogging that we frequent have selected it as “THE” Theme to use including these:

[NOTE: Any blogger using Thesis probably has an affiliate link to Thesis so if decide to buy it you can support your favorite blogger by clicking on the link in their blog just before you buy. It does not cost you any more money to do this and bloggers are using it because it is that good - not because they might receive a commission. ]

Have they fixed Thesis now so that it works without a plugin? I haven’t updated my Load Of BS blog, but I had to use Brians Threaded comments to get it to work.

We installed the latest Thesis version first and then turned on the threaded comments function that comes in WP 2.7. I don’t know whether the earlier versions of Thesis would have worked with it or not. One of the main reasons we went with Thesis is that it IS supported and they DO fix whatever needs fixing.

With so many major bloggers using it now it should continue to be one of the safest themes to build a huge site on.

Reckon I will have to update my Thesis Blog., although I get a little confused when doing that as their instructions last time were not that clear. Am I supposed to overwrite the files or do I upload to a new directory?

BTW, the theme I am currently using also has support.

Hi Sire. Do you mean you have multiple blogs, one using Thesis and one using another Theme? I haven’t heard of many that officially claim to support them. If you don’t mind sharing which Theme is it?

Check out the links I provided in this post before you do any upgrading as there are many there that seem very promising regarding understanding how Thesis hooks and other upscale features work.

I don’t actually do any of the technical work here. Sammy Russo of http://SearchFriendlyWebDesign.com provided the original Theme, and installed and hosted WP for us. Derek Semmler of http://DerekSemmler.com installed and modified Thesis and has installed plugins for us.

If you don’t have the answer to overwriting or uploading perhaps someone will answer here and if not ask me and I’ll find out if Derek knows. He has multiple Thesis-based blogs.

You do want to overwrite the files; however you need to backup a copy of your “custom” folder before you upload the new version. Once you upload the new version, you copy your backup of the “custom” folder back to the site.

The new downloads page has a pretty straight-forward set of instructions on how to upgrade. If you have any questions or problems, feel free to give me a shout though.

One other bit of advice I’d like to give bloggers……is when you change WP Themes, make sure that your Comments are DO FOLLOW, and to use a Top Commenter (also called Top Commentator) widget. This will ensure returning readers, and a higher quality of comments!

The threaded comments are a nice touch, because its gives better flow to the Comments Section— when the Replies are directly under the Commenter’s comment.

Thank you for reminding me to add a Top Commentator widget to our to-do list. Do you have one you prefer over the others?

Another advantage of threaded comments is it makes it easier for the blog author(s) to ensure they answer all comments.

Thank you Matt. I’d love more input into your recommendations regarding Top Commenter. I agree that although probably more correct that most people are more familiar with Commenters than Commentators.

Why do you like them high on the page? Because you feel the featured commentators get more visibility and potential clicks there? The link value will be the same regardless of where they physically show up.

I have an idea for you. Let’s assume that most people arrive in a blog with the primary intention of reading a specific blog post. Analytics indicate that most people read that page and leave for somewhere. If that is true whatever is displayed when the finish reading the post may be most likely to be clicked on, right?

Perhaps we should put the comments on a separate page (as some advanced bloggers do) and use a plug-in to show popular posts and Top Commentators at the BOTTOM of the current post?

You’ve reminded me that I need to get an answer from some analytics types about what analytics shows if someone opens links on a page in a new tab and keeps the existing page open. Does analytics think that person has “left” that page or does it think they are now on both pages?

Welcome Tommy. Here’s the first thing for you to read:

1) Get an Avatar – if you most want to promote your book use the book cover or something related to it. Then upload that Avatar to Gravatar, on Twitter, and anywhere else you travel.

2) Whenever you comment in a blog use a link to your favorite site for checking out your book. Some blogs may delete it but those like us will not.

3) Eventually you may want to get a blog that uses CommentLuv so that you can feature a post like those you see on this page. If you’re serious about blogging regularly contact me and I’ll advise you on how to do it.

Threaded comments are great for conversation / discussion style blogs and Wordpress is a great blogging platform. Unfortunately I’ve been having quite a few problems with category issues in a number of my 2.7.1 Wordpress blogs.

Welcome. We haven’t noticed any category issues. Could you elaborate so others using WP 2.7.1 will know what to watch for? The issue you’re seeing might indicate an incompatibility between the new WP version and your Theme or plugins.

You have a very interesting WP ecommerce implementation. Any idea what Theme or plugins are required to create a store like yours? Your designer knows what they’re doing. Good use of breadcrumbs that so many stores lack. Do you have a wishlist function yet? I’m researching those for a Yahoo! store owner.

Sire, I believe it is most likely a result of the image/thumbnail settings within the Thesis options. Is this running the 1.5 release or one of the betas? Also, what version of the Beer plugin are you running? I am setting up a test to see if I can duplicate the issue.

Update: After some testing I found that it was the Thesis CSS that was impacting the size of the image. There is a style that adjusts the size on the form input and the Beer plugin is a form with an image as the submit button. With some quick testing, I have the following CSS that you can add to your custom.css file to correct the size of the beer image:

.custom .format_text input[type="image"] { width: auto; margin: 0.4em; padding: 0; border: 0; }

Let me know if you have any questions.

Also, do you know how to change the color of the video box?

Thanks for your help Derek.

Sorry, I edited my comment above before I saw your response here. I’ll try to find your post in the forums and answer it there as well.

For the color of the video box, you’ll want to define your own custom style (again in the custom.css) to alter the default look.

Thanks Derek, that worked a treat. In regards to the forum it was another issue, one to do with my smiles that disappeared after the upgrade.

I had a look in the custom.css and couldn’t find anything to do with the video box. Suppose that means I have to do it myself. Might be easier to make the video bigger. Speaking about the video, it doesn’t always display correctly as it seems to cut off part of it.

It’s having to now how to do all this stuff that put’s me off Thesis.

Sire, glad to hear that it worked for you. Regarding the video box, you won’t have anything in the custom.css unless you have added it in there. You can reference the style.css for the default styles that you can then customize in your custom.css file.

As an example, if you wanted to change just the background color you could add this to your custom.css:

.custom #video_box { background: red; }

In terms of the video box cutting off part of the video, my initial assumption would be that the box is not resizing when the embedded video is larger than the box size.

You are correct that to really tweak and customize the Thesis theme you need to have some ability (or have someone that does) to make these code and CSS changes.

Hope some of the above helps you.

Thanks to both Derek and Sire. Your conversation has made even more about blog design and particularly Thesis clear to me. I wonder if Thesis is not flexible enough or how it works is just more complicated than writing code yourself.

There is more about Thesis and a discussion with Mitch about why I’m recommending Thesis in the post I’ve used in Comment Luv for this comment. It sheds even more light on why I do not believe most bloggers and business owners should be handling the technical aspects of their blogs.

Why invest time learning something that you only need to do once now and maybe a few times in the distant future if you want a redesign? A business owner’s time is better spent focusing on their business and a writer’s time is better spent writing.

Learning how to modify WordPress or Thesis is only necessary for those who want to be able to redesign, tweak and play with their blogs all the time and those who wish to offer their services to others.

Thanks Derek. The video was actually smaller than the box and so there shouldn’t be a reason for it to be chopped off like that. Apparently it is browser related as it works fine on Google Chrome. No problems with my other theme which makes me assume that Thesis has something to do with it.

Thanks for the fix, I may use it later, but it is no longer necessary as I’ve used a bigger video box to take up the space and the black no acts as a frame, but at least I can now change the frame color.

Thanks for all your help mate, I really appreciate it.

Most bloggers like you, Dennis, and Derek may not realize how invaluable your skills are to others. You made the time and figured out how to do it yourself. Some don’t want to take that much time away from their other interests and responsibilities.

I really need to work on a post on thinking small: offering specific tasks for a flat rate. Many need simple (to you) things like an Avatar or Favicon added, a logo created, something added to a sidebar, header or footer, maybe a divider added to their CSS that they can add to set off sections of posts, or an award or widget added.

Those who have these skills should create a page about them, link in some examples of their work, set a price and maybe even provide a PayPal button. Make it easy for people to find and buy and they will.

Hi Alex,

One of the major reasons we use Thesis is that we know they’ll test and fix any issues new versions of WordPress or commonly used plug-ins run into. I suspect most of the time themes will work; it is those times they don’t that can turn into real headaches.

Since our goals are primarily to keep information flowing and not to learn new ways to fix blogs we use Thesis so we don’t have to fix them ourselves.

This looks like it will save alot of time. Automatic updating is worthwile in most cases as long as you are familar with the software. Wordpress is fantastic and I will be looking into this more. Thanks for the heads up.

I haven’t tried the thesis theme yet but think I will now that I know it does threaded comments. Thanks.

Tyler – there’s no reason to go Thesis just for threaded comments. There are good plugins to work on any theme, and the new versions of WP have it built right in; again regardless of theme. :)
