Comment posted to WordPress 3 Theme Blix with Targeted AdSense and SEO Optimization by Template Creator

Decided to upgrade a couple of WordPress blogs to 2.8 before I went to sleep :)

Upgraded this site (site your on now runs WordPress) with no problems, so I know Talian works fine.

Also updated another site running a red version of Blix that I’ve not released yet, (similar to Blue Blix, but Red). Since Blue Blix and Red Blix are Blix with different colours this Blix should work fine in WordPress 2.8.

Will update http://www.morearnings.com/ which runs original colour Blix with AdSense/SEO in the morning, I don’t expect problems.

Will update this page to say it Blix runs in WordPress 2.8 fine after upgrading multiple WordPress blogs running Blix, as then will have found any issues if there are any to find.

With WordPress plugins you should aim to use as few plugins as possible.

There’s quite a few that are VERY anti-SEO, for example most of the WordPress plugins that add Digg
