WordPress MU

I've just updated the theme on http://mu.wordpress.org/ to bring it in line with WordPress.com

Everything I've tested so far works for me but if you find any bugs, please leave a reply here!

hah!
got me pretty confused... pressed F5 to refresh and was wondering where the good old forum had disappeared :-(

###edit###
does that mean the search on the left is now working? or shall we still use the old search link you posted once?

Try it. :)

Congratulations! The new theme looks great!

Stephane Duary at http://tekartist.org/ has created a logo with a nicer mu character. I've just changed the header colours a tiny bit too.

Nice redesign. Are new features planed, like a blog or a plugin browser?

And can you post a vector version (like the WordPress logo in PDF) of the logo?

A blog is on the way but the plugin browser is the one on wordpress.org. No point in replicating that.

I only used the png off the WordPress.org site as a base for that logo. Not sure if there's a vector version floating about somewhere.

No, I mean a plugin browser like buddypress.org it has. It lists all plugins tagged with 'buddypress'.

That plugin browser is a good idea but it'll only happen if I have time to implement it unfortunately. It probably needs to be more flexible than the one on the buddypress.org site as most plugins will work in MU.

Tip for those confused with the new layout: bookmark this link instead of the old one -

Very surprised. Good change. I am going to be confused on which forum I am in:)

Just for reference, when you search the forums, you lose the breadcrumb link along the top that'll bring you back to the forums.

:thumbup: Great job!

simple & clear.
Thank u very much.

The new theme 'feels' much nicer. The old theme felt more staid & bland. I also like that the search form is now available everywhere. Great work!

On a somewhat related note, I noticed, though that my recent post 'Cannot Deactivate or Archive Blog in 2.7' doesn't show up when I search for deactivate or archive, although it does show up for the tags deactivate and archive.
