In 1 week since the launch of Bayou Theme for Micro.blog, the documentation site received 2,189 unique visitors from 31 different countries.

If you’re a Bayou Theme user, @lmika has created a nice sidebar plugin.

Released a new plugin for Micro.blog: Sidebar for the Bayou theme (yes, another sidebar plugin). Thanks again to [@Mtt](https://micro.blog/Mtt) for making changes to the theme to support adding the sidebar. Can be installed from the plugin directory (please ensure you have Bayou version 1.1.3 or later).

Wow, Google didn’t mess up the gumbo by adding tomatoes. Pretty accurate representation of the best gumbo.

Some micro.blog news from @manton regarding Sumo Theme. And a nod to developers as well.

What are you using for RSS these days? I’ve been using NetNewsWire since it re-launched on iOS. I have no (well, few) complaints, but I want to see what others are using.

Sumo Theme & Bayou Theme now have localized text support (set language in config.json). Visual text elements (ex “Read More”) will display in your language. This will be coming to Tiny Theme as well. Languages supported are English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, & Russian.

I have just released Bayou Theme 1.0 for Micro.blog. Read the intro and dive into the documentation. Its main goal is to keep your longform posts visible and accessible without leaving microposts in the dark.

My site is now running a pre-release version of Bayou Theme for Micro.blog. I should be able to make it publicly available in less than a week.

In my opinion, longform content should have higher visibility than microposts. Unfortunately, that content is often lost in the constant stream of thoughts we push out. As a remedy, I’m soon to release a Micro.blog theme that prioritizes longform content without losing your microposts. Hello, Bayou.
