Apologies To TypoXP Reloaded Users


I was contacted yesterday by Feedburner to let me know that I’d forgotten to delete one of my ad codes from the TypoXP Reloaded theme, which meant that users would occasionally see ads intended for this site. Feedburner have been brilliant in helping me fix this and no ads will appear on sites using the theme - site owners don’t need to do anything.

I just want to apologise to all site owners who are using the theme for this screwup - I thought I’d got all the ads. As an act of goodwill I will be giving a $10 amazon vouchers to the first 10 theme owners who get in touch, which I think is roughly how much I made from the extra ads.

    Kudos to the gesture Everton. But I think most of us have removed that ad-code above the comments manually before trying your theme.

    Btw, I had earlier indicated to you about this in one of my previous comments here.. http://www.connectedinternet.co.uk/2007/04/01/myblogearnings-for-march-2007/all-comments/#comment-59615

    I saw your comment but I forgot that there are two comments templates depending on whether or not you use the paged comments plugin, so I only checked one.

    Guess you get the first $10 voucher

    I’ve always been very impressed with how friendly and helpful the Feedburner folks I’ve dealt with have been.

    It does take a heart to own up for an error… But no problems here, everton.. I had switched to Brian’s threaded comments some time ago..

    Thanks Everton. I don’t need to do anything? You sure ;-)

    Don’t worry about it at all Everton, I’d surely never noticed - it’s a great theme you’ve put together, you keep your cash.
