Release Datesort descending Notes
7.x-1.0-alpha3 20 Sep 2011

This release includes minor fixes to styles, mostly to do with Drupal 7, along with most E_NOTICE and E_STRICT errors.
7.x-1.0-alpha4 12 Apr 2012
7.x-2.0-alpha1 10 May 2012

This new release is based on the Clean theme. Most of the hacks from 6.x and 7.x-1.x are now unnecessary and have thus been removed. This is as close to the Web Style Guide recommendations as possible for building a Drupal site.
7.x-2.0-alpha2 12 May 2012

Bugfix and new features:

  • Fixed nested doublewide margins.
  • Fixed full-width feature rotator margin and line height.

  • Added option to configure breadcrumb hiding.
  • Added option to highlight "Home" menu link by default.
  • Added dynamic tab link navigation.

Extensive testing and the following bugfixes:

  • Fixed pull quote styles.
  • Fixed production (minified) jQuery UI tabs not display properly.
7.x-2.0-beta2 20 Jul 2012

This release is not recommended. Use 7.x-2.0-beta3 instead.

7.x-2.0-beta3 20 Jul 2012

  • Added support for responsive tables: table.responsive-scroll for scrollable table and table.responsive-split for split table (scrollable in both panes).
7.x-2.0-beta7 2 May 2013
  • New percentage width classes: w-scale25, w-scale50, w-scale75, w-scale33, w-scale67. These are useful for controlling table column widths.
  • New option to configure any block in the menu sidebar as a menu block. Blocks created via the Menu block module are now supported, including styling for linked block title.
  • New option to use menu link title instead of page title as the appended breadcrumb end.
  • Fixed viewport resize for accessibility.
  • Fixed excessive responsive table width by limiting width to first breakpoint below full view.
  • Renamed Sidebar region to Menu sidebar.
  • Removed unused Highlighted region. A subtheme previously using region must define the region in the subtheme info.
  • Fixed appended breadcrumb end to use tab title if on a non-default tab.
