New: "Editorial" Color Style in Theme Options > General.
New: "Modern" Color Style - a soft, card-based design with rounded corners.
New: "Modern" and "Blocks" demos in the Demo Importer, in addition to the Default demo
New: Dark Mode for the Editorial and Modern styles, with a switch in the header and a "Default Color Scheme" option (Light / Dark / System)
New: "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
New: "Featured Wide" (1240x520) image size, used by the Broadsheet feature
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
Improved: the main navigation now sticks to the top on scroll in the Classic style too (desktop)
Improved: the Breaking News bar is a CSS animation; the carouFredSel jQuery plugin is no longer shipped
Improved: 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
Improved: 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
Improved: Customizer color and typography defaults now match the stock design
New: "Buttons" block style for the Categories / Tags block.
New: "Thumbnail List" block style for the Latest Posts block.

Improved: the post Views counter now counts each visitor once per 24 hours, instead of counting every page refresh. Views by editors and bots are no longer counted
Fixed: the post Views counter was not counting visitors on sites using a full-page caching plugin
Fixed: the Most Viewed widget could interfere with other widgets displayed after it (missing wp_reset_postdata)
