Our Labeling News and UniqueDay blogs as well as Totally Incorrect are all based on Brian’s themes. There are good reasons for this.

First, the quality of Brian’s themes is always top notch. His attention to detail is brilliant and you know that you are getting the best out of WordPress. Because the themes are published under the GPL, you are welcome to customize and change them to your hearts content.

StudioPress is the latest generation of Brian’s work and Totally Incorrect is based on his Metro Theme. What is really good is that the theme is pretty good right out of the box (or right from the download) but it is easy to customize without having to be a php or html expert. Check out the Showcase gallery and you’ll see that the only limit is the limit of one’s imagination.

So quite apart from the fact that the templates are really good, the other big reason to go with StudioPress is the support. Once you purchase a StudioPress package you get access to the firat class support forum where knowledgeable users as well as Brian himself pitch in to help answer questions and solve problems.

Good example, I broke something on Totally Incorrect today and posted a question in the support forum. Brian answered in about 5 minutes. Turned out the problem was totally self inflicted (a bad setting in a plugin), but it is reassuring to know that the support is always there.

So, it would be true to say I’m a very happy customer. I’m really looking forward to new template releases from StudioPress because I’m always looking to make my sites better.

Disclaimer – I’m a happy client of StudioPress and also an affiliate member. Navigate to the StudioPress site by way of the logos on my blog, buy something and I will make a few bucks. Must be good!

The only problem with this was that the blog’s RSS feed became overrun with my Tweets since they greatly outnumber blog posts.

This wasn’t a problem for long – the WordPress community has already solved just about every potential issue. The answer in this case is a plugin called Advanced Category Excluder. ACE allows me to choose which categories go into the RSS feed.

Since all the Twitter posts are all in the Uncategorized category, it was simple to exclude them. Now anyone subscribing to the feed gets only the real blog posts – brilliant.

Thanks to Tim Elliott for the great little tool.

Here is a bonus tip for today, also on feeds. If you are using the (<!–more–>) tag to truncate your posts, you won’t see the full post in your RSS reader, regardless of your feed settings.

Again, there is a plugin just to solve this problem. It is called Full Text Feed and you can get it from here. Thanks to Ronald Heft, Jr. for this problem solving plugin – click here to visit Ronald’s site and see his other plugins.
