This update brings compatibility with the latest Xenforo 2.2.9 and fixes an issue which could lead to the editor appearing broken when using the theme with non-matching Xenforo versions. Further, all Nulumia themes have not received added compatibility with SEO & Index Tools addon.
Removed the "block" element around custom content in HTML widgets. This was originally meant to help contain content from breaking out of the sidebar, but may also cause layout issues in other content areas. It's recommended to wrap your custom content in a <div class="block"></div> element when using Advanced mode HTML widgets in the sidebar.
Fixed issues with aside and floating captions in the slider
Fixed an issue preventing hover and alternating rows in structured lists, such as on Resource Manager index or categories
Updated modified templates to use latest Xenforo versions
Moved all themes to use the new Xenforo asset system.
All references to the @xf-themePath style property have been replaced with %ASSET%:style
Misc Improvements

Misc Improvements
Removed some deprecated templates for lighter file package and XML size
Removed the default value of "0" from the custom Logo small width & height fields in Style Properties -> Basic options
Messages
Changed the default avatar size to Small when the user info column in messages is set to the above position
The custom style property for the User Extra Details wrapper (which contains things like Join Date, Trophies, Reactions etc) no longer applies when the user info column is set to the above position. This helps prevent some unwanted style bugs which may be improved in a later version.
The user info column has been set to the above position in all advanced graphical gaming themes (Aftermath, Headquarters, Enforcer etc). This helps to allow greater space for post content due to the condensed nature of these themes.
