Just another regular maintanence release is here. Most important change is exapnding CSS classes to support tags for comments like blockquote and code (thanx goes to Anita for pointing this out). Also, some of the IE6 issues have been also fixed. And one very nasty bug in author module (thanx to Snider for discovering this bug).

Since I am still getting a lot of questions about customization of Starscape:

After you install and activate Starscape, in the Design WordPress menu you will get one more option called Starscape. This will open a new control panel page with a lot of options for customization of Starscape and blog. Also, read the user guide located in user_guide folder to find out what all the options are for. There are more then 15 diffrenen modules available that are built in the theme for DIGG, adjustable sidebars, menus, tags, gravatar… Read this user guide before asking any Starscape related questions to avoid repeating things.

Thank you for using Starscape.

And here it is, after 5 months of development, this is the last edition of Starscape. No more new features will be added, only one or two more bug fixing releases. This time, edition Scorpius comes with some very interesting features and improvements.

I have updated this blog, and also the demo blog with new versions. Demo blog can be used as a proof of XHTML and CSS validity since, many plugins tend to break that. So, the theme is 100% valid. Demo blog is on: demo.starscapetheme.com.

If you want to find out what’s new, keep reading.

I have reinstalled blog from scratch. Now blog uses latest WordPress 2.6.1. All plugins are reinstalled, all extra and unneeded files are removed. There are still some problems with Download page, and I will see in the next few days if Lester Chan can provide update to his Download Manager plugin. Widget with downloads is working, so you can use that.

And, new Starscape theme will be availalbe in the middle of the next week.

I have created new blog as a demo and preview of Starscape theme. This offical blog will always feature latest stable version, and demo blog will feature demo versions and will be free of plugins.

Big thanx to all the people who reported bugs in Starscape. No matter how I try to write code without errors, we all know that’s impossible. So when people started using the theme, well, bugs have shown themselves.

Just to let you all know, that I am currently working on solving all bugs reported so far. You can expect update (1.4.4) most likely in the next day or two. Don’t hesitate to contact me through forum, send me an email or leave a comment. Report a bug, give me suggestion, whatever you want.

Thanx for using Starscape.
