1. Manga+Press no longer has its own top-level menu. To summarize the reason for this change: it seemed rather pointless for Manga+Press to have its own section. Here are the locations of the Manga+Press pages:
   1. Manga+Press Options is now located under Settings.
   2. Post New Comic is now located under Posts.
      • 2.5 introduced the option of using Add New to post comics, and if you want more control then that is what I’d suggest. Post New Comic is still limited to uploading files 500KB or smaller; using WordPress’s own interface gets around this limitation.
   3. Manga+Press Uninstall is located under Plugins.
   4. Series has been eliminated
   5. Manga+Press Dashboard has been eliminated.
2. As you know, Manga+Press 2.5 was supposed to have the option of automatically modifying your Latest Comic and Comic Archive pages but had to be eliminated due to issues. These options are now enabled in Manga+Press 2.9. To enable them, all you have to do is specify pages for Latest Comic and Comic Archives.
   • Tip:
     • If you wish to use your own custom pages, then this option can be disabled by not selecting any pages for Latest Comic and Comic Archive (or setting the dropdown to the blank option).
     • If you’re using a custom theme from WordPress.org, then it is suggested that you test whether or not that theme can handle the automatic insertion options. I do know that some themes—specifically magazine-style themes—don’t handle that option all that well so it is probably better to create a custom template page for your latest comic and comic archive pages.

Getting Started

Read this section first! To get started:

1. Two new pages — or feel free to use existing pages.
2. Go to the Manga+Press Options page and set your latest comic and comic archive pages to the pages you wish to display your comics on.
3. If you wish, activate the “Automatically insert comic navigation code into comic posts” option. I would suggest using this if you’re uncomfortable modifying your existing theme and you’re not going to use the bundled Manga+Press theme.

That’s it! You’re done!

Modifying a 3rd party Theme

You might not have to modify the theme in question. Activate the “Automatically insert comic navigation code into comic posts” option. It’s on the first tab of the Manga+Press Options page. Click that and also select “Exclude comic category from front page,” then click the Update Options button. If everything appears okay, then you shouldn’t have to modify anything. If there are some glitches, then you may to adjust your theme. Check out the section on Manga+Press’s Template Tags to get started.
