If you have other problems please don't hesitate to start a support ticket or post in our customer support forum.


CHANGES:

  • ADDED xb_offcanvas_controls template to house the default menu + recent posts link. You can easily add custom links here without having to edit the navigation template

  • ADDED Register Link property, you can easily style the color of the register link when logged out ( Style Properties -> Login Bar)

  • ADDED Logo Max Height property ( Style Properties -> Header and Navigation )

  • ADDED Panel Links styling to target links inside notices (Style Properties -> Notices -> Panel Links

  • ADDED Welcome Bar Fade-in and out option (can make it so it just always stays active to logged out users)

  • ADDED Prefix Primary & Secondary styling (Style Properties -> General -> Left Column at the bottom)

  • ADDED New default avatars, use transparent background which inherits from Style Properties -> General -> Avatars

  • FIXED Login bar spacing is now hidden when default handle is removed

  • FIXED Style Properties -> Forum / Node List -> Node Titles wouldn't let you set the color here by default in XenForo, we've made a slight change so you can easily change the color

  • FIXED Collapsed Sidebar FA-Icon had a bad html class

  • FIXED Horizontal Message quotes/codes/attachments margin-right

  • FIXED Node Customization Sub-Headings will now inherit their respecting colors set in the Node Heading Colors

  • FIXED Editor Image icons using RTL

  • FIXED Can no longer use user panel if the logo is set inside the navigation (would just not show previously)

  • FIXED Various aspects of the User Panel:
    • Automatically adjusts the logo block
    • Minimized properties, you can now control it via a single property, the links will inherit the hover/open effect of the normal menus for easy styling
    • Avatar automatically adjusts to the height of the panel.

  • FIXED threadStarter conditional showing in convos as well

  • FIXED Bug where our user banner option to show in member card + member list, the div was always showing with extra spacing even with users who have no banners.

  • CHANGED Social Links RSS will now automatically link to your forums main RSS if enabled.

  • CHANGED All custom JS to the body template

  • CHANGED Off-Canvas navigation will now by default slide over the content, rather than pushing the content to the right.

  • CHANGED Sub-Forum icons can now be set in the same manner as the regular font awesome node icons (Style Properties -> Node Icons)

  • CHANGED If you disable the sub-navigation it will now disable the quick search if in position 0 or 1. Essentially the search would cover up the navigation with no sub-nav requiring far more work than to just switch to another position.

  • CHANGED The way we approach Node Stat FA Icons, previously it was either FA Icon or Text only, now by enabling the Node Stat Icon it will show next to the text. You can hide the text if you want by adding some simple CSS to your EXTRA.CSS:
    Code:
    .xbNodeStatsText { display: none; }

  • CHANGED: Styling on the discussion list stats column slightly, now uses the main border color slightly opaque so it doesn't stand out too much.

  • CHANGED [XB] User Panel moved into [XB] Header and Navigation

  • CHANGED Quick Search Icon now serves as a submit link rather than a link to the search page. I believe this would be the expected behavior as an end user.

  • REMOVED: Collapse Sidebar Content was an old property not used

  • REMOVED Font Awesome Node Icon Size

  • REMOVED Category Footer go to top

  • REMOVED "xb_node_mark_read_phrase", now using the default XenForo phrase for marking a forum as read (mark_forums_read).

  • REMOVED Welcome Block CSS (xb_welcomeblock_css) - Was apparently never used

  • REMOVED Scroll Button Containers (xb_scroll_buttons_contianer)

  • REMOVED Body Helper CSS + option to enable, it's in the HTML by default now which you can use extra.css to style it
    Code:
    .xbBodyhelper {CSS}

  • REMOVED: Node Stats (xb_stats_dl)

  • REMOVED: Node Stats Count (xb_stats_dd)

  • REMOVED: Node Alt 1 Background (xb_node_alt1) & Node Alt 2 Background (xb_node_alt2)

  • REMOVED: Node Alt 1 Hover (xb_alt1_hover) & Node Alt 2 Hover (xb_alt2_hover)
