Big Medium 2.0b34: "International Blue"

Posted Dec 1, 2006

The "International Blue" beta update fixes a grab bag of bugs, primarily in the areas of subnavigation, RSS feeds and the email-page feature.

Download the latest version of Big Medium here.

The download package includes installation instructions, including info for upgrading from previous versions of the Big Medium 2 beta. (If you're upgrading from 2.0b33, see the shortcut instructions below.)

The Nitty Gritty

Here's what's new in this update:

  • Subsection navigation now highlights the current section if applicable.

  • Fixed bug that prevented Windows servers from displaying the email-page form correctly.

  • Fixed bug that broke the email-to-author feature of the email form.

  • Fixed bug that prevented turning off the full-text RSS feed option, even when the option was unchecked in the site's RSS preferences.

  • Fixed bug that prevented <%subnavigation%> widget's direction attribute and preference from being honored properly.

  • Fixed a bug that caused the <%subnavigation%> and <%pulldown%> widgets to display nothing at all inside sections set to be suppressed from navigation.

  • Added rel="bookmark" attribute to headline links for the benefit of some search engines.

  • Added privacy policy text to email form.

  • Fixed a style bug in Internet Explorer that caused a gap to appear below horizontal dropdown navigation.

  • Fixed CSS style bug that blocked background color changes for subnavigation menu items in the style editor.

  • New installations now get their time zones set by default to the server's local time zone.
