Releases for Genesis

Release notes

Genesis D7 stable release, some new features include template override for taxonomy terms, fields, removed old message styles and icons, move secondary links to top of the page, added many comments to css, tweaked css, removed little used selectors.

Release notes

- http://drupal.org/node/488222 validation error in CSS
- fix unstyled "unpublished" styles for nodes and comments in the DARK subtheme
- change a:active/a.active styles for DARK theme

This is not a big deal upgrade, over writing your current 6.x-2.0/2.1/2.2 base theme will not break anything.

Release notes

Left some dev code in genesis.info, this is now fixed. Apologies for the extra release.

Release notes

The 5th iteration of Genesis 2 is all about Layout and documentation.

Many new layout options have been added, including the concept of Unit Variants (please see the docs).

Each layout now has 3 unit variants (ems, pixels or percentages).

Gpanels! WTF are Gpanels? Gpanels are drop in snippets that emulate the layout of normal mini-panels. See the docs in Genesis for instructions (they are very cool).

Many new README files added and a almost complete rework of most comments and docs.

This will be the last beta release of Genesis 2. Once this is bug cleared there will be an official release.

Release notes

Beta3 is likely to be the last beta release. In this release I have incorporated some important features and updates:

1) syncing body, node, comment and block dynamic classes as closely to what I think will be in Drupal 7 (this is not yet committed to D7 but I cant wait for that). At any rate this is either bang on or going to be very close.

2) Added in the equalise heights jquery plugin. This makes its trivial to have equal height columns with no additional markup or CSS.

3) Removal of some styles, such as floating the user pic in profiles etc. Minor updates but all in a effort to strike the balance between doing too much and giving a rudimentary, aesthetic theme out of the box.

4) I have introduced a fairly radical approach to theming Unpublished messages - this is something a client asked me for earlier this year and it works well. Integrates reasonably well with Fasttoggle module also.

There are no real bug fixes, this is more a final feature set update with minor formatting changes for some files and syncing of selectors with the new classes.

If there is another beta release (unlikely, as bug fixes will go to dev and then a final release), it will only be if there is a major bug found and we need wider testing before release. At this stage I cant see that, the code base is pretty well tested and nothing I haven't done in the past.

Release notes

Critical update:
Moved admin.css and messages.css back to the base theme. This is to allow the _all-[].css stylesheets to work properly.

Other updates:
Moved message icons to base theme.
Switched to relative positioning for icons also.
Added 2 new alternative stylesheets, one for each subtheme that is "tidied", with all comments removed and selectors grouped.
Added sprite-fireworks.png, the 32bit png version of the sprite so you can change the menu bullets, arrows and legend arrows.

Release notes

Head dev release.

- most modular stylesheets now in each subtheme

Release notes

Mayor update to the core framework:

- All CSS abstracted into mini stylesheets, you can now unset any mini sheet that you dont want.
- page.tpl.php went through a complete rewrite.
- major rewrite of template.php, new features added such as conditional classes for nav, header, moved theming of primary/sec menus to preprocess_page, moved the usual nitemare of code around logo and site_name to preprocess_page also. This is a fairly radical departure from normal Drupal practice.
- added specific classes such as .node-title, .block-title, .comment-title & #page-title.
- very basic RTL added, this does not work so well in IE, so is unsupported but its there for dev purposes to provide a foundation for patches.
- modifed the .info files to make it easier to unset CSS (core .info and subtheme.info).
- added many inline comments to templates and CSS files.
- many other changes, bug fixes and updates.
