The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.
That’s right. After almost a month of delay, WordPress 2.7 is out. There are some nice improvements, both on the back end and the front end.
The biggest item on the front-end is threaded comments. To reply to a specific comment, just hit “Reply” just below the comment. I’ve enabled it all the way out to the maximum 10 levels of commenting.

I really like the looks of the admin area. Only had a few minutes to poke around, but I like what I see so far. Maybe I will tinker with mine this weekend.
Extremely cool. I myself just jumped on RC1 a couple of days ago and I really dig the new admin interface. I think perhaps my template doesn’t invoke threaded comments, so that part doesn’t seem to work for me yet.
My larger problem is trying to figure out how to import a 10 meg exported XML file of my blog to a remotely hosted wordpress installation whose environment limits php file transfers to 8 megabytes. Advice?
Try the export/import as a compressed file. PhpMyAdmin does support that, and it should reduce the file size to something less than 8 MB.
As for the threaded/paginated comments, instead of the entire “foreach ($comments as $comment)” section in the comments.php file, WP 2.7 introduced the “wp_list_comments()” function. Simply replace that entire section (don’t forget to wrap it inside the php tag).
