Overview
This release includes the new beta theme which is compatible with XF2.1.0b. In the XML folder, you will now find an XF2.0 and XF2.1 folder containing the appropriate files.
** IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ **
Regarding the new beta theme:
I am currently rewriting all themes for the official public release of XF2.1, which will bring major new features, style enhancements etc. As such, your theme will likely appear somewhat to drastically different when XF2.1 Official is released. However this will be a beneficial step, as I intend for every theme to take on a new polished look moving forward on 2.1.
- This is a template-merge release only
The 2.1 beta theme has been carefully merged with new XF2.1 templates and Style Properties. Thus, it does not bring any new features or improvements yet. The theme will be overhauled with the official public release of XF2.1.- There are known bugs
There are a few small bugs, which are not theme-breaking, rather just small aesthetic issues which will be polished up.- There are limitations to features
While mostly everything is intact from XF2.0.x, there may be a few Nulumia settings and options which may not work yet (or well) on 2.1. The default layouts provided in the XML's are tested and working great.
Q: I haven't yet upgraded to XF2.1b. Should I upgrade to use this theme?
A: Most likely, no. As this theme doesn't yet bring any new improvements, unless you have other reasons to upgrade to XF2.1b, you shouldn't do so for this theme release.
Q: I already upgraded to XF2.1b. Should I overwrite the previous version of this theme?
A: In most cases, yes. If you've made only small customizations within your child/active style, it should be safe to just overwrite. If you've made many or heavy customizations to your 2.0.x theme over time, you may want to consider importing as a fresh new theme and remaking your changes. This is only because some new Templates and Style Properties are handled a bit differently in XF2.1, meaning some of your customizations may be out of date and need reverting.
Please PM me if you need advice!
Q: How will the theme change for XF2.1 Official?
A: The new framework in development contains too many changes to list. However, it includes a huge new HTML Page Builder framework I've created, which is similar to Bootstrap. Most of my themes are visually being redesigned from the ground up with new, sharp UI.
Q: Will you continue development of the 2.0.x theme?
A: There is one more major release in development for XF2.0.x. Aside from bugfix or maintenance updates, further development will then only continue on XF2.1+.
