How many people use the services provided by the default thematic installation in the WordPress Back-end? Could the new update reflect the change of Social Media and default to the most common services today?
//info
function extra_contact_info($contactmethods) {
unset($contactmethods['aim']);
unset($contactmethods['yim']);
unset($contactmethods['jabber']);
$contactmethods['facebook'] = 'Facebook';
$contactmethods['twitter'] = 'Twitter';
$contactmethods['linkedin'] = 'LinkedIn';
return $contactmethods;
}
add_filter('user_contactmethods', 'extra_contact_info');
Yes the code is simple but they are more the relevant contact methods these days. Just an idea.
