I would really love to see some tutorials about how to convert existing CSS code snippets – say for the awesome Email Sub forms Chris created for use with Thesis 2.0!

The code itself is a snap to add. To style it? Um, not so much. Thesis 2.0 is really starting to grow on me though.

In reply to Tony. It doesn't seem to, I just installed them both on a clean install and it is still a mess. I know Kristeralla created the thesis/buddypress child theme that was supposed to work with previous versions of thesis, but it doesn't work with 2.0 sadly :(

In reply to Ganti. I can tell you this much. I got version 2 and there is not one one tutorial explaining how to use it. Saying it is a giant step backward is a gross understatement.

I’m a writer in the middle of a marketing push. What I need is good SEO, an an easy design and options page like in 1.85 and a way to upload a background like I upload a header. I love the idea of 2.0, but I can’t afford to stop and learn how to operate it until my next vacation.

Anyone know if there is an easy way to import all of the hooks code when upgrading? I realize with the boxes model that 2.0 no longer uses hooks, but it seems like an arduous process to import into 2.0 all of the code that we had put into various hooks.

In reply to Brian. I'm about to attend the webinar through BYOBWebsite. Despite my initial skepticism, I remain optimistic.

In reply to Ian.

Your comment stood out. You’re right on all counts. But, people are always reluctant to change. I got it, and I installed it on a test site first. I’m obviously not going to go a load it on my star website just yet. Gotta learn it first. Not only that, but this is the time when most updates happen. So, I’m guessing we’ll be seeing everything from new updates, to tutorials, to skin downloads, to boxes, etc, etc. Remember all those tutorials posted on the blog for Thesis 1.8 and older? Something like that.

I don’t expect to be fully converted to 2.0 for the next month of so. But that’s change for you. Kinda slow sometimes.

Hello, according to the 1.x install, one have to rename the custom-sample folder. But in the zip of thesis 2, there is no custom-sample folder. What do we have to do ??
