Documentation

Developer-facing changes

Breaking Change: If you redefined largo_load_more_posts in your child theme, you will need to update it with code from this release, as the old logic will fail to load the correct posts.

  • The Load More Posts button can now be used multiple times on one page (PR #786 for #745)
  • The Load More Posts button text can be changed with the largo_next_posts_link filter. (1c12526)- The list of users in the Largo Staff widget is now filterable using largo_staff_widget_users. Example use in nonprofitquarterly.org’s theme on lines 177-202 of functions.php. (PR #701)
  • largo_excerpt() no longer uses $use_more and $more_link arguments. These arguments have been deprecated, and will be ignored. (PR #759 and #765 for issues #52 and #764)
  • The footer, sidebar, and article-bottom widget areas, and the navigation are excluded from consideration in Google’s searches using the nocontent class. (PR #743 and #772 for issue #664)
  • The number of posts in the homepage template is now filterable (PR #744 and #776 for #742)
  • Theme update functions are now organized (PR #739)
  • When the update functions are run, new options will have the defaults set. (PR #734 for issue #727)
  • The tablet size check in largoCore.js is now for window widths less than or equal to 768px wide, instead of less than 768px wide. (PR #704)
  • The Series Landing Page permalink now uses an improved filter (PR #455, thanks to Chris Harmoney)
  • Various fixes related to sidebars for Series Landing Pages (PR #788 for issue #642)
  • The hero image partial has been enhanced with a filterable set of functions (PR #724, #737):
    • largo_hero: Prints the hero
    • largo_get_hero: Returns the hero
    • largo_featured_image_hero: One featured image
    • largo_featured_gallery_hero: A featured image gallery
    • largo_featured_embed_hero: An embedded video. Ex: YouTube or Vimeo
  • Travis now tests against WordPress 4.1.5 and 4.2.2 (fbe7b72) and uses sudo: false (0d8b89d for #738)

Bugfixes

  • Miscellaneous typo fixes
  • Bugfix for staff avatars not displaying on the [roster] shortcode (PR #754)
  • The “Exit Clean Read” button is no longer hidden by the sticky navigation (PR #781 for #768)
