Missing Plugin Hooks in WordPress Themes

One of the really nice things about WordPress is that anyone can create WordPress themes.

But be careful, because you could break WordPress plugins if you miss out on a couple of important things.

One of them is missing template plugin hooks.

Many plugins depend on wp_head(), wp_footer(), wp_meta() and comment_form() being called in the templates. If you miss out on any of them, the plugins will fail. We have first hand experience ourselves because some nice folks informed us that the WordPress Plugin for TicTap Contextual Ads did not work. We checked the themes and discovered that missing plugin hooks were the problem.

WordPress has very nice documentation for theme creators.
