Headway Hacks Premium
The Bad: Recently, Wish List Member decided to deactivate and take all of its data with it. So I’ve been forced to render Headway Hacks Premium offline for a bit while I attempt to rebuild months of planning and hard work. Fantastic, right?
The Good: I’ve gotten a lot of great feedback on this project from both members and prospective members so using that feedback I’ll be able to bring back the content bigger, badder, and more organized. I’ll also have a bigger login button…

The Good: All I can say is to please stay tuned, and you’ll see some improvements coming to Headway Hacks. Including more videos and some re-done videos.
That’s all I have to say about that.
Some people have been getting dates mixed up. This is an announcement that the introductory offer is over. The normal rates of purchase are now in effect.

Headway 1.5.6 connects to the theme server to see if updates are available. Unfortunately, the code in 1.5.6 and the new headway server don’t match up, causing lag in websites running 1.5.6. The issue should be fixed when 1.6 comes out, but for right now, here’s an unofficial patch:
