WordPress 3.4 (and its Impact on Suffusion)

The biggest event in the WP universe last week was the release of version 3.4 of WP. While the event generated a fair amount of press, I honestly found the release very underwhelming. Broadly speaking, here are a few highlights of this release: New Theme Customizer From your Appearance → Themes menu you will see […]

Upcoming Changes in Version 4.2.1 of Suffusion

This is something I hate doing, but unfortunately with new features come new changes. I did mention in my previous posts that I am working on a new skin. The skin is called “Scribbles” and you can see a demo of it. If you look at this skin closely, you will see a lot of […]

Upcoming Changes in HTML5 Version of Suffusion

I have more or less completed the changes for the HTML5 version of Suffusion (probably Suffusion 4.1.0 or 4.2.0). A lot of folks think that HTML5 compatibility simply means that your site has to pass HTML5 validation. That would be doing HTML5 for all the wrong reasons. Here is why: The W3C markup validation service […]

Suffusion Version 4.0.0 – Beta Release 2

Apologies for the delay in getting this beta out. There are two main reasons for the delay: I was extremely busy with a lot of work at my day job, and secondly, I wasn’t able to wrap my head around one particular bug. Eventually I managed to overcome the challenges, so I present to you […]
