A couple of months ago I upgraded the theme to a premium theme to make it more usable. There was so much going on with the website that the regular blog style just wasn’t able to keep up.

The downfall to the upgrade was that not everyone liked it. . .and I completely understand. I’m not a fan of change, and I know that the blog style is easier to navigate through(for most people). Thankfully the overall consensus was that the new theme was much better.

How the front page is now, the bottom part only lists the last 10 posts. I wanted to get it setup with the pagination at the bottom so anyone can go through the older reviews. Sadly the way the theme is setup, I was unable to get it exactly how I wanted. But we(myself and the coder I hired for some of the custom plugins here) were able to get the old school blog style in another way.

If you go here – http://www.appstoreapps.com/blog – that is a custom Wordpress page that will list all of the iPhone application reviews. This will not list the ‘iPhone Apps on Sale’ but it will list any application review(both free and paid). Right now the next/previous links aren’t aligned correctly, but I will be going back into the template tonight and fixing this.

I also got a suggestion to add the dates into the posts(I assume in the preview of the post), so that it’s easier to skim through the page looking for new posts. If I can add this and make it look good(find the right spot for it), then I will. . .I’m not 100% sure if it’s possible. . .or if it will look good. And if it doesn’t look good then I would rather it not be on the site.

If anyone has any comments or suggestions about the website, I am always available via email(I just added a contact form on the contact page), or you can leave a comment below.

Thanks again everybody for all the support. I love working on the website and I hope this continues for years and years.
