Parabola 1.3.1 and the little things

Not much to say about this version. Just some small cosmetic changes, a new social icon (Steam) and a small fix for multi-line breadcrumbs.

We also disabled the auto-redirect to Parabola’s settings page after theme install / update. Full changelog after the click.

Tempera Theme sneak preview

It may seem that Cryout Creations turned into a one man team lately, but the truth is that while Zed has been making update announcements and provided (some) support, Mr. Kay in true creative mind and spirit has been investing almost all time in constructing his latest masterpiece: the Tempera theme.

Currently in (almost) beta state, Tempera is a siamese twin of Parabola options wise but a wealthy distant cousin as features and functionality are concerned. With just a few more things to put into place, the Tempera theme should be released in the upcoming days.

Mantra 2.3.0 gets some extra attention

Mantra received attention in the form of new responsiveness enhancements, a new media uploader, smaller social icons, updated comments and form design, updated admin interface design and some other small fixes.

More about Mantra’s revieved attention and the full changelog for this update after the jump.

Parabola 1.3.0 touches responsiveness again

In this update we addressed the responsiveness issue again. With new browser detection and a responsive check for resolutions below 1100px, responsiveness has been greatly improved.

This version also comes bundled with improved plugin compatibility and a new media uploader for the theme settings page. Full changelog after the jump.

Mantra 2.2.2 loves twos

And since good things come in pairs, today both our Parabola and Mantra updates got published (almost at the same time) by Wordpress.

The triple-two release of Mantra is a maintenance update providing fixes for some issues discovered since the last release.

Parabola 1.2.2 skips a beat

After a bit of quarrel with the Wordpress theme review team (which even triggered a Codex instructions/rules update) and a rejected update, Parabola won and the new version is up for grabs.

The major change is in the presentation page’s behaviour, which will now display latest posts by default and which can be overridden by Wordpress’ “Show on frontpage” option…

Mantra 2.2.1 took the scenic route

You might have thought we were goners after such a long pause in new posts… but we did not go quietly into the night… we did not vanish without a fight… we’ve fought the cold and now we’re back!

Between fighting viruses and running noses, we actually found some time to update both Mantra and Parabola and also prepare a surprise to all creation lovers out there…

Parabola 1.2.0 catches up

The latest Parabola weekly update is not far behind Mantra. Version 1.2.0 brings a couple of bugfixes, two new social icons and the Dutch translation.

Mantra 2.2.0 blends in

Keeping to the weekly update schedule, Mantra 2.2.0 comes with the often requested options to include latest posts on the presentation page (the number of posts is independently configurable) and select the menu items alignment.
