So I finally got some time away from developing and testing Wpscoop to write a fresh blog post that will hopefully outline some of the work we have been doing and keep you informed about the direction of the site. Most of the work and testing carried out on the site since our v2.0 relaunch has been very much behind the scenes concentrating initially on tuning performance, enhancing stability and making sure WPscoop’s existing features all work the way they are intended. So far I am delighted with the way the site is performing at the moment with very little errors having cropped up, so whats in store for the future of WPscoop? read on to find out.

If you have been visiting WPscoop this week you will have noticed some major changes happening on the site, for one we have a great new design for the main site and blog which we think you will agree is a vast improvement over our old design. We have also updated the system upon which WPscoop is built (Drupal) to version 6 which is something we have been wanting to do for a few months now. Lot’s of hours, coffee and bug squashing went in to the sites upgrade and we hope you all like the improvements we have made to WPscoop.

With Brian Gardner joining forces with Jason Schuller and releasing all their new themes under the Open Source GPL Licence, this week is your last chance to grab yourself one of the great Revolution Themes.

As of 12:00 midnight, October 31st, they will no longer be available for purchase, but the support will continue and for those who have paid for the developers license there will be free access to the support and extra features section of the new themes.

No doubt lots of you visiting us will now use Twitter and whats cool is so do we

With the anticipation of the release of Wordpress 2.7 growing by the day wouldn’t it be nice if you could access a live demo of the system as administrator without having to download the SVN development snapshot. Well thanks to talkpress.de you can so just that as they have a web SVN demo running live that anybody is free access.

I hope all is well with everybody in Wordpress land. And hopefully you have all seen our ‘new look’ WPScoop. Stuart has been working hard all weekend to bring us a new theme for our site, and I must say it looks great!
