      Hello Shujaat,
      Thanks for sharing the code.
      I’m not sure about the effect it has in search engine rankings.
      Here is how you do it..
      Replace the below line in swift/includes/features.php

      <?php include('thumb.php'); the_excerpt(); ?> 

      with

       <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?>
      <?php  include('thumb.php');?></a><?php the_excerpt(); ?>

    Thank You so much Satish for your excellent work, I really like your theme and best of all its FREE and works as good as a premium theme, maybe even better (I am not a web or seo guru lol).

    Anyway I just customized featured.php to fit my need. I wanted to hyperlink the pictures so that when a user clicks on the picture, it goes to that post. If anyone needs to do the same then here is the code:
    ==============================================
    Open featured.php

    Find this code:

    Replace with:
    <a href=" “rel=”bookmark”>

    ===============================================

    I am not sure if that is good in terms of SEO. What do you think Satish?

    For some reason, there is no “reply” button in the comments section on my blog. (It uses the swift theme.) Why is this?
