We were pleased this month to launch the newly redesigned wpmu.org. For over a year WPMU.org has been one of the leading sources for WordPress, Multisite and BuddyPress news on the internet. At Incsub we like to be on the cutting edge of WordPress development and design and we feel that the new wpmu.org theme is just that.
Responsive Theme Design
Responsive design has been the talk of the internet for more than a year, ever since Ethan Marcotte published his influential article on A List Apart. With the number of devices that people are viewing the internet on increasing all the time, we knew that we wanted a design that would look beautiful on any device. And we have it. The new design looks great on the biggest monitor and the smallest smartphone.
Wider Content Area
We’ve got a much wider content area to really show off our writers’ content. This makes it much more readable and accessible for our readers, while enabling our writers to show off their creative flare.
New Layout and Navigation
We wanted wpmu.org to feel more like the leading news and tutorial site that it is. This means that when people land we want them to have full access to our content. By switching to a news layout we have all of our great content ready at a click.
Comments Plus
We’ve made it easier than ever to leave a comment. We’ve developed Comments Plus – a commenting plugin that lets our visitors leave comments via normal commenting, Facebook, Twitter and Google. We’re getting this together to release as a plugin.
The new design is gorgeous, if we do say so ourselves. Visit wpmu.org for yourself to try it out.
Every year, Edublogs runs the Edublog Awards a.k.a. The Eddies. This is a chance for the education blogging community to come together and vote for their favorite bloggers and tweeters. The awards emerged as a response to schools, districts and educational institutions blocking access to both teacher and learner blogs.
