• It requires WordPress 3.0 at a minimum.
• If you are upgrading from a previous version of the theme please have a look at the readme file included. This is considered a testing period so you are upgrading at your own risk. Don’t be too alarmed it has been tested by a few users and they have used and or upgraded the theme with no issues.
• I’ll say again, right now I am looking for people who run to give it a run and see if they come across any errors. Please feel free to email themesupport@papertreedesign.com should you find any bugs.

Moving right along, as mentioned in a previous post there are a few new features added this time around and some that have been removed. The theme does now have support for post thumbnails. While it is deactivated by default you do have the option to turn them on via the theme options. You also have the ability to reconfigure the thumbnail size, default is 150×150. Note: You may have to run the regenerated thumbnails plugin should you decide to do this.

There are a few major differences in the theme options that you should also be aware of.

1. The site meta keywords option is no longer available but are available on a per post basis.
2. Analytics scripts option now only accepts Google Analytics and requires the Property ID rather than the full script. You can still insert analytics via hook for child themes or of course by editing the footer.php file.
3. Display options – in previous versions you were able to control the display of either the_content or the_excerpt on the home page. You now have the option to also control the archives, category, search pages etc.

You will also notice that rather than basic custom field usage for meta information that you will now have a custom meta box making it much easier to understand and use. Your old post meta options should transfer as the actual custom fields the new meta boxes handle have not changed.

Once again, please read the included readme file and feel free to check out the included changelog (detailed). Ask any questions and report any bugs you encounter to themesupport@papertreedesign.com.

P.S There may be an HTML5 version in the works!

Enjoy!

In regards to typography, what I would consider to be a semi-major change here was the decision to drop text justification on entry-content. It was a battle but in the end I decided that packaging the theme with justified text and no added support for hyphenation just wasn’t going to work for me any more. You will see in master.css that I simply commented it out so that you can easily re-justify the text, however if you do so I would highly recommend that you check out wp-Typography to add support for hyphenation and other goodies.

The second important update to this version is the improvements made to better facilitate the creation of child themes based on Charlene. See Full Foto a WordPress Child Theme build on Charlene for more information. (Full-Foto will be available soon) The major changes include the removal of the custom-functions.php with the recommendation to customize via child themes moving forward and the addition of two new hooks.

Additionally there were some other minor changes to the theme to include improved security. Please see the changelog below for a full list of changes.

Note: if you currently use the Charlene Theme on your site and are considering an upgrade to this version I highly recommend that you read below to see if any of the changes will affect your current installation.

If you have any questions concerning Version 0.2 please do not hesitate to drop me an email at either hello[at]papertreedesign.com or themesupport[at]papertreedesign.com.

A note on upgrading – currently the theme is not available via WordPress theme repository so you will need to download the new theme, delete the old theme and upload the new, backups are recommended.

Having recently updated the main Papertree Site, wrapped up a few client projects and begun development of a second theme, I would now like to focus on the next steps for this theme. So I would love for any feedback, ideas or notes on bugs you have experienced. Please feel free to email me: jeremy [at] papertreedesign or drop a comment below.

Also I would definitely recommend and/or appreciate if you took the time to subscribe to Papertree Design, if for no other reason than to get ongoing updates on this theme and new ones on the way.

Looking forward to your replies!
