@Phillip: `sem_display_post` is a function I use to display the entire post. I've put it and the other template functions in `plugins/sem-theme.php` rather than in the theme directly, because they'll eventually be xml based, with an xslt argument for you to customize the output.

The function is in plugins/sem-theme.php

What is `sem_display_post`? I'm unable to find that file in themes or plugins.

Dennis

would it be possible to put the current version number next to the download link above. I try and keep track of when an update is announced but often miss it.

Thanks, Kevin.

P.S. Keep up the good work.

Denis -

Thank you again for such a prompt response to my question (re: incorporating adsense) as well as the warning regarding how little google pays off the ads. You are incredibly knowledgable about so many aspects of both the internet and the blogosphere, and while money is so tight now that I'm having trouble making my mortgage payments :( you can bet that I'll be making a donation as soon as I can afford to.

I know so many people appreciate all of your hard work and effort – your theme and plugins are really works of art and a fantastic example of just how much can be accomplished with WordPress. I hope that the bad behavior of a few others (distributing your work w/o giving credit) will not prevent you from continuing your work on and sharing of this masterpiece!

Off to upgrade to the latest version :)

Best regards,
Emily

@Leng: I added a check in the plugins. They will direct you to the obsolete versions of the plugins.

The three fuzzy plugins doesn't work for me. I'm using PHP 4.3.10 (http://www.themp3players.com/info.php)
It should work with XSLT. But it just don't work for me :(

Can i just use the v2 fuzzy plugins?

Version 2.2.3 is now available for download. A CSS tweak aside, the real change is in the plugins, and the small change in subversion number hides a major upgrade in every respect.

The new package features the beta of version 3.0 of my fuzzy recent posts, updates and comments plugins. These should let you get an idea of what is coming with version 3.0 of the theme, which will be along the same line.

Before you upgrade, I recommend that you disable and delete the plugins that are now located in folders. WordPress tends to do weird things when you don't.

You can safely ignore the new xslt files in the theme dir. The tile plugins will fallback to the copy of these files in their respective folders. Alternatively, you can change them, and customize the way recent posts, updates and comments display on your site without editing the plugins.

Lastly, you'll want to know that the tiles feature built-in caching. Thus, you'll likely want to create a `cache` folder in `wp-content` and make it writable by the server (`chmod 777`) to maximize performance.
