If it isn’t already apparent from viewing our blog, you may have noticed it has received a fresh new look! The front page of the blog has been set to only display the most recent post. We have also decided to move the sidebar content to the bottom of the page to help give a primary focus to the post/posts. We hope these changes help make it easier to promote discussion of the most recent articles within the blog.

Promoted Discussion

As an example, when you see a new post, you’ll notice this “start a discussion” box located below the post”. If you click this box it’ll promptly take you to the posts comment section, allowing you to create a comment thread within the post.

Once at least one comment has been made, the latest comment will be displayed on the post loop to show that “Hey, there people are talking in here, you should join in!”

Archives Page

In addition to some tidying up, we also have a new archives page in place. This page organizes and neatly displays each and every post within the MerchantOS blog.

We are constantly striving to simplify and improve the way we communicate and hope you enjoy these changes. If you have any questions/comments about the new look, feel free to leave a comment below.
