About Tribune

Tribune v4.3.1

Tribune 4.3.1

Enhanced Video Widget functionality

Version 4.3.1 enhances the Video Widget by introducing a playlist format and improved video link support, allowing for easier management and live previews of videos. Users can now add or remove up to 20 videos directly in the settings.

Improved

  • the Video Widget front end is a playlist — each video row shows its thumbnail with the video’s duration and its title, the playing one is highlighted, and the player keeps a 16:9 box while loading
  • the Video Widget now accepts video links (YouTube, Vimeo and any other oEmbed provider) as well as embed codes, and its settings show a live preview card (thumbnail, title, provider) for each video, fill in an empty title from the video, and let you add or remove videos in place (up to 20) instead of picking a count and saving first. Players from links are cached, and settings are sanitized on save
Tribune v4.3.0

Tribune 4.3.0

New

  • “Editorial” Color Style in Theme Options > General.
  • “Modern” Color Style – a soft, card-based design with rounded corners.
  • “Modern” and “Blocks” demos in the Demo Importer, in addition to the Default demo
  • Dark Mode for the Editorial and Modern styles, with a switch in the header and a “Default Color Scheme” option (Light / Dark / System)
  • “Broadsheet” Color Style in Theme Options > General, a revival of the original Tribune 1.0 design: condensed headlines (Barlow Condensed) over serif copy (PT Serif), charcoal rules, a cream-framed full-width feature, a “Breaking News” flag, a charcoal footer and a homepage built from three-column bands. Supports Dark Mode
  • “Featured Wide” (1240×520) image size, used by the Broadsheet feature
  • “Buttons” block style for the Categories / Tags block.
  • “Thumbnail List” block style for the Latest Posts block.
  • “Surface” block style for the Group block.
  • “Home template” block pattern for building the homepage in the editor

Improved

  • Default style refresh. Flat date labels instead of bordered badges, a neutral white Breaking News bar, quieter slider controls (dots + arrow buttons), sidebar widgets with a single hairline border, uppercase dark widget titles, an outlined “Continue Reading” button, and the drop cap without its offset shadow
  • the main navigation now sticks to the top on scroll in the Classic style too (desktop)
  • the Breaking News bar is a CSS animation; the carouFredSel jQuery plugin is no longer shipped
  • the Carousel and Tabs widget scripts only load when those widgets are in use, and the YouTube API only loads when a slide embeds a video
  • the theme icon font and Dashicons are no longer loaded on the front end; icons are inline SVG so the Customizer colors still apply to them
  • Customizer color and typography defaults now match the stock design

Fixed

  • the “Views:” label on single posts was empty for posts with no views
  • the “There are no featured posts” hint in the slider area is now shown to site admins only, not to visitors
  • the Customizer “Blog Posts Title” size was also applied to the Carousel widget titles; it now targets the blog posts list only
