Thesis Tutorial Compilation – The Most Useful Thesis Tutorials on the Web

by R.J. on June 29, 2009

I’ve compiled a short list of some of the very best copy-and-paste-able Thesis tutorials on the net. This might look familiar. Recently, Matt Langford published a fantastic list of 100 Resources for Thesis. This list included a lot of tutorials as well as general CSS resources and pieces of advice. Some of those classics can be found here, but I’ve tried to also include some more obscure and even more recent tutorials from Thesis developers.

I hope that these tutorials give you some inspiration for your own blog.

Thanks for the link! There were actually a couple tutorials in there that I didn’t know about as well. Good list!

@ Matt, no problem! Great tabbed widget tutorial btw.

@ Greg, you’re totally welcome. I was actually hoping someone would talk about Thesis and phpBB3 and I think it’s great that you did so with a video. Makes me think about starting up my Flip mini.

Thanks a lot for including my tutorial in your article here! I see you have that trick implemented here, looking good. :)

Hey Alex, thanks for dropping by. Yes, I used your trick to make the bottom of my posts “stickier.” I like it because it’s useful and flexible so it can be used all over a theme potentially.
