Here’s the rundown of the some of the cool features:

…and more features down the line that you will automatically have access to by using the Install theme button.

If you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know.
Also follow this Tumblr if you want updates on new features!

Missing Sections?
Some 1000 Suns Theme users might be experiencing missing sections of their page layout. Unfortunately a theme update that went out had a small bug in it, which I was able to quickly squash, but the update has yet to be approved by Tumblr. Hold tight, it’ll be automatically fixed soon as the latest update goes out.
Edit: Within seconds, the update has gone live (thanks Tumblr team). Let me know if there are any issues here. (If you have Custom HTML turned on, you won’t get the automatic update until it is turned back off.)
Quick Note on New Features
- more customizability of top buttons (turn off individual buttons or full set under the Appearance tab in the Customize page)
- “Ask a question” button (if enabled on your tumblr)
- “Submit post” button (if enabled on your tumblr)
- Twitter button (simplified process, just plug in your username and you’re done)
- refined formspring and answer post styling
…and lastly, my favorite new feature:
- keyboard navigation!!! (press left and right on your keyboard to skip pages/posts)
Disqus Support Added
If you pop on over to the Customize page and check the bottom of the Appearances tab, you’ll see an option to enter your Disqus Comments shortname to allow comments on your Tumblr in a jiffy.
