Changing Themes

Two notes, if you change themes:

  1. You’ll remove all Referrer Karma blocking and Refer logging, unless you put the hooks in for each. If you can’t figure out how to do that, send me a PM and let me know A) what theme you were using and B) what theme you’re going to so that I can show you how to get the hooks put in the appropriate places.
  2. You will want to go to Spam Karma [Options --> Spam Karma 2] and run the compatibility checks on your new comment form. I was doing my usual comment spam rounds just now, and I found one case where a new theme’s comments-posting form was very outdated and didn’t have the programmatic hooks that let SK2 do its job. [b]That will, at the end of the day, largely keep people from being able to leave comments on your Weblog.[/b] The checks are automatic, and they’ll give you reasssurance if everything’s kosher, and directions on how to fix it if not.

As always, let me know if you have questions.
