P2 doesn’t have navigation menus, but you can add a custom menu to your sidebar using the custom menu widget and populate it with your content of choice. Searching both sites would require self-hosted blogs with some integration work.

Hey I love this one! I was trying to think of how to make it work in tandem with a partner site. One would be for promoting community engagement, and the other would be content support. With custom menus, you can bop back and forth (does P2 have custom menus yet?). What about the sites searching eachother? I put Meebo on my site, but I’d rather use P2.

We hope to use p2 in our new web hosting website for better conversations between users. A great way to create a support forum!

Mmmm, the theme is good, but it’s so unfinished. If you only allow logged in users to post and they go to their profile… AAAH! it’s back to the old wordpress admin look! Holy smelly fish, this is ugly, I mean, why have you not themed the backend as well????

THIS is the feature that still makes twitter great and this woprdpress theme sucky. C’mon on guys finish the job, make a ‘total experience’ not a half cut job! I now have to use another plugin to theme the backend and login AAAHH …

why to have to always go to the dashboard – even to post an image ?

By: Ryan Markel

Ryan Markel — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 21:44:42 +0000

You can use the IMG tag in order to get images into your posts if you have the source URL, but if you want to upload an image to be part of the post, you’ll need to head to your admin section and use the regular post interface. Simply use the media tools like a non-P2 blog.

Can somebody tell me? How can I put an Image? Not a Link, but an Image?

There aren’t many dashboard options for this theme, but it’s open source, so you can do whatever you like with it.

Useless: Just like Twitter This would be a great internal communication tool, where Twitter-style IMs & logging them for collaboration would make more sense.

How can I post a picture or a link?

By: nomad-one

This is really great, though there’s no need for people to see it as a twitter competitor, there’s enough space online for personalised as well global, P2 opens the door for many other uses for wordpress, just like some of the other alternative use themes which have been coming out in the last year or 2.

I’ve even being toying with the idea of making a task management/light project management theme for WordPress.

I’ve been looking for a simple Q&A forum without the hassles on WP. Looks like I’ve found it.

The comments have so many great ideas for its use – perhaps I’ll use it as a page for clients like a private membership site too.

Thanks for making P2 free.

So you don’t have a use for it. Don’t use it. A creative individual might find dozens of uses for it, so is there any particular reason to be a prick about it?

is kinda cool!!

but.. isn’t it almost the same IRC achieved a decade before?
oh yes.. I forgot to mention youtube ..

but on IRC they used images, colors, emoticons, sounds, animations, connections and plenty of more.. almost a matrix application…

I think we are rediscovering the wheel
nevertheless… I think it is a good start for a new change

Kickass. Its like a forum, mixed with a non-account-based twitter type of thing. I would probably create a new page in my blog and use it there; i wouldn’t use this theme for my whole blog. But it looks fantastic.

just when I thought I was understanding how to start a blog, it turns into twitter? disappointed…too in the moment – need the luxury to read “articles” and well-thought out paragraphs, not just percolations…

agree with renderedchild, I’d like this in a side bar or mixed with a normal type blog.

Great theme.

Though I notice on a single post page, the navigation to the next older posts actually states “Newer post” (and vice-versa). This should be switched around, no?

By: Lora

Hm. It doesn’t really look like a blog anymore, just some sort of forum.

This would be cool as more of a plugin for a current blog; mix together micro posts and full length posts to your current blog… that would be rad.
