Weblog Tools Collection: WordPress 2.7 Comment Enhancements

Otto who is a well known and respected member of the WordPress community has published a pretty cool article (WordPress 2.7 Comment Enhancements) which explains the various comment enhancements which have made it to the core of WordPress 2.7 thus far. Otto’s reasoning behind the post was to allow theme authors to gain a head start on creating themes which will be compatible with WordPress 2.7. One thing to keep in mind while reading this article is that, this information was compiled from using the latest developmental version of WordPress 2.7. This means things may not be set in stone with further additions or retractions possible before the initial release.

Here are some of the enhancements that Otto covers:

• Creating a 2.7 compatible comments.php file
• Password protection check
• The comments loop
• The power of Ajax
• Styling

Thanks Otto.
