I will try to spend some time this weekend to see the effort involved in updating the theme for 1.1. I had scheduled quite a few mods for my car but I guess xF would take precedence :)

Thanks!
Looking forward to the update :) :)
 
Akrion,

Any chance of a sticky-indicator being added to the theme?

I noticed that it doesn't have a pin or different colored background to indicate a sticky thread (unless this broke with 1.1).

I think a pin + different background color would be great. This theme is, frankly, one of the best out there. Love it.

Theme is not yet updated for 1.1 ... I should / will note this on the first page .. done!
 
Will the green version come with the updated version?
Well that will absolutely slow down the release of the 1.1 update of the theme ... I am not sure the current forum admins using the blue or red would want to wait for a "bundle" release ...
 
102 templates to be updated for 1.1 ...
I'm not surprised.
You have many modified "***.css" templates. Try not to make changes in them, and move all the changes in "EXTRA.css".

Disadvantage - some CSS-classes in the styles will be twice - the original and your modified.

Often need to specify the "!important" for some properties. (I still think it's lack of XF, but the developers are looking at it differently.)

The great advantage of - much less modified templates and fewer problems during the upgrade.

For example you can see template "EXTRA.css" in my style Xenia.

Both approaches have their advantages. Unfortunately given my schedule there is no way I will have enough time to get the theme updated AND extract every change to EXTRA.css.
 
As far as the update to 1.1 progress goes I have the main theme (Aurora) converted. I have to get now the full width one as well as both Blue versions. Max 1 week from now if all goes well.
That fear, to see you here thought I was the update :D
 
Akrion, you have a spammer on your forum named Paul Zand linking back to "Viagra". :D

Thought the name looked familiar, he joined mine also.

So have any been full converted to work with 1.1.0 Final yet, you seem to say yes about one above. But reading the first page in this thread you've posted none have been fully yet?

I don't think he'll be releasing the updated skin until the Blue version is completed and has them both working in Fluid.

:) Will take care of this later today ...

The main theme is converted but I do not want to post half done stuff. When ALL themes (Red/Red Fluid, Blue/Blue Fluid) are 100% I will post the 1.1.0.0 release here. So far as I said above only Red is 100% converted. Tonight I will probably get the Red Fluid done if all goes well and Blizzard does not release a new patch of D3 beta :) .... joking of course ... I think ... :)
 
Ok I redid quite a few things and as a result the new versions of the theme (Green for example) would be possible in almost no time. Also the child themes will now be SIGNIFICANTLY smaller. In a nut shell I added all images which make an Aurora theme unique (red/blue) as style properties, which as you may guess makes an update from red to blue to green etc. possible in less than a minute. I have updated my dev site to xF 1.1 and also have installed the Aurora 1.1.0.0 version (which is more like a beta as of now). All the links on the main/first page of this thread point to the updated version of the theme. Let me know if you see something fishy :)

I will most likely release the 1.1.0.0 version tomorrow ...

Very cool!

I'm not sure if you saw my earlier post... its buried somewhere in there... but I'd love to know if you could also release the matching WP theme.

Thanks,

Hello quick request and worry before I should....Can you change up the naming directories etc a bit so that it doesn't overwrite the existing install. I guess my worry is many of us have customized and changed up the css files enough that straight up overwriting would cause a problem. Thanks again for all your amazing hard work.
