Solving pagination issue with Monochrome WP theme
If you’re using the Monochrome WordPress theme from Mono-Lab, you may have noticed a problem with the pagination function at the bottom of the post list:
When clicking any of the numbers, it breaks and returns a 404. This can be solved by editing navigation.php and changing the following line of code from:
user_trailingslashit('page/%#%/', 'paged');;
to:
user_trailingslashit('index.php/page/%#%/', 'paged');;

Mobile browser detection: WPtouch
Just a quick mention of a fantastic new WordPress plugin called WPtouch. It acts as a mobile browser/agent detection script and displays WordPress-based blogs in a more usable mobile-based theme.
I’ve installed it on this blog, so from now on if you visit via your iPhone, Blackberry or other mobile device, it’ll use an optimised theme that loads quicker and is generally more usable on the smaller screen. Hurrah!
2An update! Ye gods!
I have neglected my poor blog for a good few months now. I intend to get back into the blogosphere in the New Year. For now I leave you with the news that I’ve upgraded to WordPress 2.7, and it’s absolutely awesome. Get it.
0Still need convicing of the benefits of usability?
Just a brief post to say that, should you still need convincing of the need to do usability on your website (or any other visual media, for that matter), then here it is: our very own WordPress blogmeisters are carrying out usability studies on their WP interface.
They’re doing it. So should you if you’re serious about design!
