Vigilance 1.21 released featuring a new blockquote and theme option!

by Drew Strojny on January 5, 2009 in Vigilance

Vigilance 1.21 is now official. Head over to the download page to grab a copy. Take a look at the improvements:

  • Fixed broken layout when login is required to make comments
  • Added a new theme option to exclude header navigation items by page ID (thanks Jason!)
  • Search box added when search returns no results
  • Fixed font sizing on child pages in the sidebar
  • Restyled the original blockquote and changed the old style to .float-quote

Check out the new and improved super-duper blockquote! Clean, professional, and eye-catching. You can still use the old style, check the updated tutorials page for specific instructions.

    Suggestion for an upcoming release — If you have no text in the updates section (above subscribe to RSS or e-mail alerts), the spacing seems too high. The theme should reduce the spacing between those links and the box title if there is no text.

    I just started using and customizing Vigilance, and I love it. Do you have a place where bugs are being tracked so that people who want to contribute patches can know what needs work?

    Ted, good question!

    Vigilance uses Github for source control and Lighthouse for issue tracking.

    If you are interested in contributing code contact me and we can discuss it.

    Hey Drew,
    May I suggest opening up a support forum for this wonderful theme?

    I think that might make support easier for you and for people looking to post general questions.

    I’m currently using your theme on my site @ http://pulseblogger.com/

    Patrick,

    Funny you should say that, I am actually working on it right now :)

    Expect to see one soon. I will post here on the blog when everything is ready to go.

    This is a brief testimonial on Drew’s consulting work and the Vigilance WordPress theme. Both are A+, 5 stars (5 cannolis in my book). I just started my own blog and needed him for a few hours of consulting work and he was extremely articulate, down to earth and knowledgeable about all facets of design, HTML, CSS/PHP and blog marketing/philosophy. Vigilance is the best WordPress theme out there and I love its customization options and clean look. I highly recommend not only his theme but his consulting services too! Thanks Drew!
