Enabling the WordPress BlogRoll
January 5, 2007 – 8:48 am
If you’ve been playing around with WordPress and using themes much lately you’ve probably noticed that more and more themes do NOT have a BlogRoll coded into them. Isn’t that annoying? If you are completely new to WordPress you may be asking just what a “BlogRoll” is and the simplest definition that I can give is it is a list that allows you to link to other people’s Blogs.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way what I’ve noticed from working with a few themes lately off a few different sites is that they don’t come coded with BlogRolls installed and if you are not a PHP coder then you are left with a theme that looks great but misses a few of the basic qualities of functionality that a WordPress blog has going for it. It is not like you can rip the BlogRoll code off of one theme and transplant it in another so I am on the hunt for a tool to help people with this issue but let me know if you’ve faced similar issues when creating a WordPress site.
I suspect I may find something after digging around a little on the WordPress Site itself. Once I find something and if I do I’ll be back here to share it with you.
