What’s new in Nico 2.7.0
Version 2.7.0 · Mar 26, 2021
Latest
- FixedSome wrong gettext domains.
- ImprovedOn theme activation, the redirection to panel now happens conditionally on the 'ci_theme_activated' action.
- NewList of widgets is now filterable via 'ci_theme_load_widgets' before they are included.
- FixedGet_logo_class() would sometimes return 'imglogo' instead of 'textual'.
- FixedIn panel, replaced deprecated jQuery .click() event handlers with .on('click').
- ImprovedAssets are now versioned using a compound version string based on the parent and child themes' versions, when a child theme is enabled. This helps prevent caching issues, where the version reported was remaining constant (i.e. the child theme's version) even when the parent was updated.
- FixedConditional metaboxes wouldn't work in WP 5.7
- RemovedRemoved compatibility handler for action hook 'after_open_body_tag'. User code should now hook into the native 'wp_body_open' action hook directly, introduced in WP 5.2
What it does
Photographers and creatives need a site that presents their work clearly without a cluttered layout pulling attention away. This theme takes a minimal approach, with layouts that keep the focus on your images. You can start from one of several presets, then import the matching demo content so the site has structure from the start. From there you replace the sample material with your own galleries, pages and posts.
Customization runs through the theme options and the WordPress Customizer, where you can adjust colors, typography and layouts without writing code. Layouts are responsive, so pages adapt to desktops, tablets and phones. If you want to sell prints or other products, WooCommerce support lets you add a store. The theme is also translation ready and works with multilingual setups, and it suits blogs, business sites and other projects beyond portfolios.
