Jacob is in love with Thesis Wordpress Theme

First of all, I’d like to apologize that not updating my blog in the past 2 weeks. You may want to know why, and I’m here to tell you. It’s a sad case. I was dehydrated and felt extremely dizzy, then was put into ward for 2 days because of “unknown reason” (told by the doctor :( ). I’m still feeling dizzy though have rest for more than one week.


When back online, the first thing I do is to purchase the Thesis Wordpress theme. Ya, you are right, what you see now is my new theme built on Thesis. I bought it and played with it in this few days. I’m telling this honestly — I am in love with Thesis. I like all the incredible features — Thesis Options, Design Options, and In-Post Options. Also with Thesis hooks, you can customize your blog easily without PHP coding knowledge. It even helps to make your blog looks more professional and stand out. One more thing to confirm, Thesis is a very SEO friendly theme. Frankly, you will no longer need the famous All in One SEO wordpress plugin if you’re using Thesis. I’m not good in writing reviews, therefore to understand the features better, you can watch the videos on Thesis DIY Theme homepage.

In this post, I create a Hiburrito’s poll for Thesis, see below:

Hi Ean, I think that is a violation. In order to use Thesis, we should buy the license. ;)

3 Een Rockstar August 9, 2009 at 9:13 pm

yeah I know. That’s why I didn’t use the theme for my blog

It’s good to hear that.

Hi Jacob… 1st time visitor :) Sorry to hear about you not being well. Hopefully you will feel 100% soon!.

As far as Thesis… I have not purchased it yet but I have a few buddies that have and they all love it. All of them have said that it is a little harder to set-up than they thought it was going to be… but once they figured it out, they loved it. I will probably break down and buy it just to play around with it one of these days :)

I like Thesis theme, and had the opportunity to use it. I haven’t bought it cause I purchased the Ultimate Blogging Theme as It gave me the possibility to put my ads where I wanted. But I do really like the way you designed your theme! Hope to have a chance to buy this theme and use it on another blog I would create or why not, changing my current theme someday…

Hi Ben, you can easily place ads on anywhere in your blog with Thesis Hook. Yes, I mean ANYWHERE. Haha hope you’ll buy it someday (use my link :evil: ). Btw, I don’t have much pocket money left haha. But I think I’ll probably signup Aweber, of course through your link. ;)

14 Benjamin Cip August 10, 2009 at 3:57 pm

In case you subscribe to AWeber throught my link, don’t forget to remove your cookies in case you already visited the page before, otherwise they won’t count you as my referral… :( Anyway, I was just kidding for OIOpublisher, I know how good Thesis is.

Hi Jacob, Hope you are feeling better! I love Thesis too. I haven’t yet taken the time to customize it a lot, but one thing that will save you some time and trouble is the Thesis OpenHook plugin. The plugin is free and just gives you easy access to the hooks. Your site looks wonderful though; you certainly don’t need any tips from me! ;)

I have been seeing a lot of blog posts about the Wordpress Thesis theme, I honestly still have yet to click on it and see what it’s all about.

I did finally decide to click your link mainly because I like how you open up the discussion about the Thesis Theme and actually gave me a clue about what it was a about. Nice step 1 for someone like me thatg did not know :)

I hope you are fine now.
Thesis themes are the best themes in the business. It is very clean theme. Hey why don’t add some more colors to it? I really like the new look of your blog. It is better than previous theme. Enjoy playing with thesis theme.

27 Jacob August 10, 2009 at 2:43 pm

No worry, I’m fine now. Hmm I’m lack of design ideas (especially in colors combination). But I’ll try to add in more colors, thanks for advice.

28 Ricky August 13, 2009 at 10:46 am

Hey the design is really cool. And thesis is the best wordpress theme in the business.
Why don’t you check my blog where I have posted few links to find color combination for the website.

I’m glad you feel at ease with Thesis Jacob. I use it on one of my blogs but it’s more than I can handle. I had to find a theme that was more user friendly and I’m not that good with HOOKS, CSS and PHP codes. Luckily I found one where all that wasn’t necessary.

37 Sire August 12, 2009 at 6:31 am

Thanks for the offer Jacob, but I’m getting too old for all that stuff and just don’t have the time, having a full time job and looking after 9 blogs and all. Besides, the theme I’m now using makes all that knowledge obsolete.

Say, you should consider installing a ’subscribe to comment’ plugin. ;)

This is something new to me. I’m fascinated with modifying themes but it’s time consuming. I’ve got to take a look on this Thesis thing.
Yes, I noticed you’ve changed theme.

Hey Jacob
I’m sure you going to love this theme. I started using Thesis almost 4 months back and I have seen some major benefits of it.
My bounce rate lowered down at 17% at one point of time
My PR increased to 4
The typography and customization is cool. :)

I’m sure you will also enjoy the Thesis :)

49 George Serradinho August 12, 2009 at 2:58 pm

Welcome to Thesis, it’s a great theme and you can customize it a lot to your liking.

I would maybe suggest changing the colour of your popular posts as the blue is very close to your sidebar colour. This is just my suggestion.

Good luck and hope to see more customizations. You can go have a look at my posts on customizing your Thesis theme more.

Thesis surely has a thumbsup from everyone.

I am planning to purchase, but I am also considering Frugal theme too as the interface and typography is a lot similar to Thesis.

Should need to go thru some Frugal reviews too and have a look at it’s backend.

Hi Suneel, I think Frugal doesn’t have much features compared to Thesis, from what I’ve read from its site. This is my opinion, though I never buy it. Btw, I will write a review about Thesis soon. :)

Hey Jacob,
Happy to hear you are enjoying it as much as I am.
I must admit I haven’t been very tech savvy with it in a while, but that’s what’s good about it. You don’t have to do anything advanced to see, that it stands out.
