I made several changes to the original Prologue theme which was designed specifically for microblogging. My modified version of Prologue theme is less Twitter-like but more Blog-like!
1. I changed the format of the post title.
2. I changed the post meta.
3. I changed sidebar content.
4. I change the layout of the individual post.
5. I added the Wasabi Related Post plugin code to single.php.
The homepage looks like this…

And the individual post looks like this…

So what do you think?

hi, i search a way to modify this theme, especially the “tags” by “categories” with check boxes, do you know how to do that ?
I would like to test out this theme
I’m very interested in getting this Modified Prologue Template. Please send me the download. Thanks!
Hi Mark,
You may need Related Posts.
Thanks for the theme! I am downloading it now and am wondering which plugins I am going to need to use to make it function as you have.
i was looking for something like that…
Great work.
Wondering if you or anyone here might have some thoughts on how to enable the post form on individual category pages, where you could choose a category from a blog using Prologue and when posting would see the posts on that page (or cross-posted to the mai page as well).
Short of that, wondering how members could choose a category while posting (much like adding tags) in the main page post form.
Cheers
Hello Shi
Sorry for not popping by sooner. What you have done seems to be what I was looking for, but have not tested yet.
Thanks for the work on this.
Best wishes.
Hi,
Mark, have you (or anyone else) been able to edit the postbox in the way you had hoped? I’d love something like this as well.
Thanks!
Hi Mark,
The modifications I made did not have separate input fields for title and content. Instead, you enter both the title and the content in the postbox separate by a vertical bar “|”.
It may not be a pretty solution but it’s functional.
Please download the template and try it.
Hi Shi,
Yes – that is exactly what I am looking for! Instead of the theme just taking the initial 40 characters and making that the title of the post, I would love to be able to write my own title instead!
So, the postbox would consist of this:
Title
Content
Tags
Mark and John,
I wonder if this is something you are looking for …
Title Of The Post|This is the content of the post and so on.
Click here to see screenshot.
The | is the separator of the title and the content. Then it will be displayed as…
Title Of The Post
This is the content of the post and so on.
I can modified the index.php of the prologue theme to cater for this feature.
What do you guys think?
Hi Mark,
Sorry, I didn’t understand your question initially.
No, I did not modify post-form.php and if I changed it, I’ll let you know.
Hey – you haven’t changed anything at all, besides the Technorati-button? I figured you’d make something with the Title-part as well, so you didn’t have to rely on writing 40 catchy letters at the start of your blogpost…
Is this something you’ll change in future versions or what will happen?

Sorry for the slow reply.
I will send you the link to download the files very soon – hopefully within the next 48 hours.
Hello
Yes, interested for both WordPress and WordPress Mu. Also, like Mark Jensen above, would like to be able to make my own titles.
Many thanks and best wishes.
Hi.
Could you send me an email with the post-form.php and post-form-part of index.php, if you have a way of choosing your own Title rather than having the first 40 chars from your post as the Title… I’ve been fiddling with it for an hour now, and I can’t seem to crack the code.
Thanks.
