Changelog
Version history for the Epiktetos WordPress theme documentation.
Version 1.2.0
Editable page and theme settings label release.
Added
- Homepage, About, Topics, and Contact can be driven by editable WordPress pages while keeping the Epiktetos shortcode-rendered sections available.
- Theme Settings expose labels for dynamic shortcode modules so site owners can adjust public-facing section copy without editing PHP.
Changed
- Bundled Sample Content includes page-driven homepage setup data for clean demo or review installs.
Fixed
- Blank space around post thumbnails in homepage and archive/listing rows by aligning media containers to the start of each row.
Version 1.1.2
Favicon and thumbnail UX maintenance release.
Fixed
- Site icon and favicon handling from Epiktetos Theme Settings, including WordPress-native
site_iconsynchronization for supported raster images. - Duplicate or conflicting fallback favicon output when a custom Epiktetos favicon is selected.
- Post thumbnail card scaling and cropping so portrait images fill consistent listing frames without leaving blank space.
Changed
- Improved homepage, category, tag, and archive thumbnail consistency while preserving single post featured images.
Version 1.1.1
Admin Settings maintenance release.
Fixed
- Admin Settings toolbar buttons, including Save, Reset, Export, Import, and tab navigation.
- A fatal error in the Theme health check caused by an undefined
demo_categories()helper.
Changed
- Improved admin UI reliability and interaction handling without changing the v1.1.0 feature set.
Version 1.1.0
Article Voiceover release.
Added
- Article Voiceover support for single posts.
- Native WordPress Media Library audio selection in the post editor.
