Photonic, Suffusion and Other Premium-for-Free Projects
I released version 3.05 of Photonic a little while ago. This is a minor release with a few bug-fixes: For some WP installations, the CSS was appearing as malformed. I have modified the code to “escape” the CSS and have it display correctly. A bug was introduced in the lazy-loading implementation, which was causing lightboxes […]
This version has a few major changes:
Photonic Version 3.03 was released on Monday this week. This is a minor release, but with some big changes under the hood.
I released a new version of Photonic on 5th April 2023. Technically I released 3 new versions, but that happened only because soon after releasing the first version I realized that the WordPress core code does not quite read PHP version information the way I was expecting it to. These are the main features of […]
I released version 2.84 of Photonic after a long hiatus. There were a couple of reasons for the hiatus. Firstly, I have been really, really busy with the job that puts food on my table. Secondly, Photonic has been remarkably stable for a long time. However, this change was necessitated due to one major change […]

I released version 2.75 of Photonic on Monday (20th September), after a hiatus of 3+ months. While the gap was quite long, it was mainly because the plugin has been very stable, and I have been actively providing support on the support forum. As it happens, I did not publish a change log for the […]
Version 2.71 of Photonic was released on 1st March. This is a minor release and it addresses two minor bugs: If a gallery was attempting to show Flickr groups in conjunction with other features such as tags, the gallery was being shown an additional time. Considering the low usage of the Flickr Group feature, this […]
In the wake of the polar vortex ravaging Texas, I forgot to publish the release notes for version 2.70 of Photonic, which was released on Monday, 22nd February. This is a small release with two minor fixes: If users were trying to display a Flickr group in conjunction with an additional parameter like a tag, […]
