WordPress new versions and ThemeFrame?
 
Hi,
I would like to know how will ThemeFrame manage changes in WordPress versions.
Meaning: I assume that ThemeFrame creates templates compatible with WordPress 3.0. What happens if WordPress upgrades to 3.5? Will you be updating ThemeFrame accordingly?

Thanks!

Flynn has always kept up with the newest builds. I don't suspect that would change now.

Thanks, it would be great to know for sure...
Fortunately WordPress doesn't change versions often, but there are a number of scenarios where compatibility would need to be assured.

I read otto's post and he does make a good point about custom post types not being for everyone. However, when you're using wordpress as a CMS or have a multi-author site, it's almost a necessity.

Justin Tadlock made a great comment related to this on one of his posts. I can't find it now but it was along the lines of why have posts and pages if pages are really like posts. The same reasoning applies.

edit: found the post. it's in the comment section here

In my case, we regularly create media releases that are formatted exactly the same. Rather than creating a new post and having to remember to fill out custom fields, it would be much better to click on "media release" in the back end and fill out a form.

I find it a shortcoming of wordpress that there isn't an option to include the custom types in feeds without modifying php files or relying on a plugin.

Or what about parent and child posts? I've read some references to these but haven't been able to find an actual example or a way to turn it on. That would remove some of the need for 'series' plugins.

I'm just putting together a separate post asking about how atahualpa handles custom taxonomy. Specifically displaying the taxonomies at the bottom of posts. It looks like I'll have to add a line of php.
