It’s August 13. Is the release date of August still anticipated? I have some web design projects that I’d like to use 2.0 for and they are coming up soon!

In regards to “responsive design”, would prefer that Thesis stays lean, mean and fast. Unless I’m mistaken (and I prolly am lol), RD might be pretty fat (bloated) especially if “bolted-on” to a theme framework. Also the moby devices’ + bandwidth (in some countries) are not fast enough (yet) to make it a visitor-friendly experience. Moby visitors want info FAST and depending on what sort of site they’re looking at (i.e. say a plumber), they want basic info i.e. location, hours of operation, phone number (tap to call) and maybe some reviews. Any lag, and they just click away to a faster-loading competitor. I might be off base here because I’m not a blogger – I just knock out basic e-brochure sites for your typical small business owners – and I only use Thesis (have tried all the other frameworks – I just prefer this one). My 2 cents 😉

Will 2.0 support Responsive Web Design (RWD)?

What is your suggested strategy for making our Thesis sites available on mobile devices such as the iPhone?

Thanks, Rich Bohn

In reply to Clarke. Don't build with the Thesis menu system, because Thesis 2.0 will be dropping the built in menu system, as far as I'm aware. Instead, just use the WordPress menu system to keep your site future-proof.

In reply to Chris Pearson. I had the same issue as Jon going from 1.8.2 to 1.8.4. Once I restored all options from a backup, things displayed fine.

In reply to kristarella. Kristarella, you'll be happy to know that we've resolved these caching issues in the forthcoming Thesis 1.8.4.

In reply to Luke. I'm wondering the same thing. I'm interested in Thesis, but my site uses BuddyPress.
