WordPress Forums

January 13, 2009

When WordPress Hacks was launched well over a year ago, we had no idea that it would grow the way it has. At last check, the blog has almost 500 posts, focused mostly on free WordPress themes, premium WordPress themes, WordPress plugins, WordPress hacks, and a collection of WordPress code.    Each day the site receives as high as 13,000 unique visits on good days and boasts over 3100 readers!

As you can see, the WordPress community has been very good to us and our passion for WordPress runs as high as it ever has.   It was with that in mind that we launched the new WordPress forums.

As of launch, here are the forums we already have available:

  • WordPress Discussions – Here we have forums setup to discuss WordPress News, beta releases and release candidates.
  • WordPress Support – I often get support questions on old posts in our archives and find it difficult to keep up.   Now people can post their questions in the appropriate forum here and solicit input from the WordPress community!   When you ask a question, the post is moved to the top, making it easier and much quicker to get feedback from other WPForums.com users!   Current forums include getting setup on WordPress, troubleshooting WordPress, WordPress hacks and tutorials, and a discussion of other WordPress resources.
  • WordPress Themes – Here we’ve got a separate forum for sharing and discussing free WordPress themes, premium WordPress themes, and we even have a forum dedicated to showcasing your WordPress theme.  I can see these forums being a good way for theme authors to get more exposure for their theme releases as well.
  • WordPress Plugins – Like the themes, we wanted a place where people can discuss both free and premium WordPress plugins.   You can promote your plugin or publish a review of an existing plugin.
  • WordPress Employment – Whether you are looking to hire someone for some WordPress-related work (coding/design) or you are looking for work, we’ve got you both covered.   The WordPress Employment section is designed to bring buyers together with sellers.  One forum allows freelancers to post their resumes.   The other forum is a great place for people to post what they need and get connected to someone that can do help.

So, have at it!  Check out the unofficial WordPress forums!
