HeatMap Theme makes the most popular list on WordPress.org

As I write HeatMap Theme has just made the most popular list on the WordPress.org themes directory. After a week the theme has been downloaded over 2000 times!

It may be 2nd from the bottom right now, but at HeatMapTheme.com we’re cracking open a small bottle of virtual champagne for this milestone!

Particular thanks go to all of you who are doing the right thing by either, retaining the credit link or making a credit link removal donation. Your support does make a difference.

Also many thanks to those who are valuing my time by donating for help received or donating because you are just absolutely luvvin’ your HeatMap Theme!

Thanks for your support and thanks for downloading people!

WordPress 2.8.2 good to go

We’ve been running 2.8.2 with Ads Theme uneventfully on all our sites for a couple of days now. That’s as expected as it’s only a small update.

HeatMap WordPress Ads Theme now on WP Theme Directory

I’m happy to announce that HeatMap Ads Theme has now been accepted onto the WordPress.com theme directory. Woohoo!

http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/heatmap-adsense-theme

We’re now up to version 2.1. The update is just a update in number, not in functionality. So no need to upgrade straight away from version 2d.

The zip file just needed one adjustment before it was accepted by WordPress.org (damn pesky thumb.db snuck into the zip!), so I had to notch the version number up one so that the WordPress directory knows that a new zip has been submitted.

Now I see the theme actually previewing on the Directory it does look a bit ‘vanilla’ without all its widgets configured. I’ll be creating some extra logic to ensure that HeatMap Theme comes preconfigured with some widgets in place straight out of the ‘zip wrap’ so it looks a little more enticing to look at in preview. Until then of course you can see exactly how HeatMap Theme can look by checking out this site, creativitypro.com and the Heatmap Theme demo.

While I’m at it I’d like to say a warm welcome all new ‘Heatmappers’. We hope you find HeatMap Theme useful in your further Adsense adventures!

WordPress 2.8.1 released and HeatMap Theme is compatible

WordPress 2.8.1 has just snuck out of beta and is now officially released.

I just upgraded my WordPress installation and HeatMap Theme is looking good. No obvious problems.

Drop me a line if you spot anything amiss.
