With this update, we now require installing the Classic Editor plugin instead. After you install the theme update, you should see a message in your dashboard prompting you to install the Classic Editor plugin. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Preparation for WordPress 5.0: Make the classic editor to be enabled by default, once WordPress 5.0 is released. The theme supports the classic editor only and a major part of its elements rely on the classic editor. If you wish to use Gutenberg, you can select the "Default for WordPress" option in Mineral Options -> General -> Content Editor, however please keep in mind that some of the theme elements might not function properly, as they were designed to be added via the Classic Editor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - GDPR: Contact page - added an option to enable a data collection consent checkbox, requesting the visitor's consent to store & use their data, submitted with the form - GDPR: Added support for the upcoming WordPress 4.9.6 comment form cookie checkbox. The commenter cookie is used to pre-fill the name, email and URL fields of the comment form when the commenter intends to post another comment. It also allows the commenter to preview and delete any comments awaiting moderation. WordPress 4.9.6 automatically includes the cookie checkbox in the comments form, however you need to update the theme to version 1.5.8 in order for the checkbox to be displayed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Updated the contact form reCAPTCHA widget to version 2, since version 1 of the reCAPTCHA API is now deprecated and will be shut down in March 2018.

Implemented a script to install the Envato Market Plugin, which is the new tool to install automatic updates from the dashboard. For more information please refer to the Updates section of the documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Improved: when replying to comments, adds the reply form below the comment to reply to - Fixed: WordPress 4.5 issue - the new inline link tooltip not working in background sections - Fixed: compatibility issue with 3rd party plugins: theme's editor dialogs broken when plugins load custom jQuery UI dialog styles and apply them globally to all dialogs used in the dashboard - General code improvements ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Fixed: WordPress 4.4 issue - selected and saved sets in editor elements (services boxes, recent posts element, portfolio carousel and pricing tables) not selected by default when editing - Added: hentry properties to the blog posts markup - this can help the search engines to more easily identify the different elements of the blog posts data - Improved: made the post titles use h1 tag on the single post page, while blog page post listing still uses h2 tags ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Handle the WordPress 4.3 update terms splitting. WordPress 4.3 will automatically split all of the shared terms between different taxonomies, which means that it will change the IDs of those terms in the database. This can affect the theme’s elements that store references to the terms IDs, such as some elements (like sliders or services boxes) can lose their default order or when added to a page, they can load items from other elements from the same type. If you have this theme update installed prior to updating to WordPress 4.3, when a term splitting occurs, the theme will change all of the references from the old IDs to the new IDs and will prevent those issues. Important: Please make sure to update the theme before updating WordPress to 4.3 once it is released, as the terms splitting will be performed during the WordPress upgrade process. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Security fix: Updated the PrettyPhoto lightbox plugin to version 3.1.6 to fix a recently found XSS vulnerability - Improved: Removed the modal mode of the dialogs on the Updates page to prevent z-index conflicts with other plugins styling the default jQuery UI dialogs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Security fix: escaped the URLs every time the add_query_arg() function is used to fix the recently found XSS vulnerability of the add_query_arg() function - Fixed: the header slider sometimes not positioned correctly when the sticky header is enabled (Firefox only) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VERSION 1.5.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Added: A Pricing Table element - you can read more about it in the Pricing Tables section - Added: Option to select the background image style and background image alignment in the content slider.
