Overview

Many site owners want a polished site without hiring a developer or learning to code. El Greco gives them a ready foundation with customizable layouts, color schemes and fonts, plus preset styles that suit different industries and looks. You pick a starting point and adjust it to match your brand.

The theme uses a responsive layout, so pages adapt to phones, tablets and desktops. A theme options panel keeps the settings in one place. For sites that need to sell, El Greco works with WooCommerce, so a blog or business site can grow into an online store. It also supports popular WordPress plugins.

Features

  • Responsive layout: Pages adjust to different screen sizes, so your content stays readable and usable for visitors on phones, tablets and desktop computers.
  • Customizable design: Adjust layouts, color schemes and fonts to match your brand identity, all through the theme's settings and without editing code.
  • Multiple preset styles: Choose from design presets made for different industries and aesthetics, which gives you a faster starting point for your site setup.
  • Theme options panel: An easy-to-use options panel gathers the theme's settings in one place, so site management stays straightforward for users of any skill level.
  • WooCommerce compatibility: El Greco works with WooCommerce, so you can add an online store to a blog, portfolio or business site when you are ready to sell.
  • Popular plugin support: The theme supports leading WordPress plugins, which lets you extend your site with extra functionality that fits your own needs.
  • Clean code base: The theme is built with clean code and SEO best practices in mind, giving your content a tidy technical structure to work from.
  • Pre-made templates: Included templates give you ready-made page layouts, so you can build out your site structure without designing every page from scratch.

Changelog

Version 1.6.0 — 21 February 2020

  • Fixed Color Scheme panel option now won't list minified files, if they exist.
  • Removed Remove facebook like button from theme settings
  • Fixed Ci_fancyboxrel() now will not add rel="fancybox[]" to image links that already have a rel attribute.
  • Fixed A regression would cause ci_fancyboxrel() to not close image links properly.
  • Removed Customized styling of Post formats' radio buttons, from the classic editor.
  • New Introduced ci_theme_asset_version()
  • Improved All front-facing scripts and styles now utilize ci_theme_asset_version(). The theme version will be used (to aid cache busting) unless WP_DEBUG or SCRIPT_DEBUG are enabled.
  • Improved Panel's support link now reads "Support" (was "Support Forum") and links to the CSSIgniter support hub page. Whitelabel or child themes that have overridden the CI_FORUM constant will continue working as usual.
  • Fixed Improved update notifications handling to work with both unprefixed and prefixed theme slugs (e.g. wp_theme5).
  • New Compatibility function wp_body_open() for pre-5.2 installations.
  • Improved The theme's own 'after_open_body_tag' action is now hooked (for backward compatibility) to wp_body_open(). As it is now deprecated, it will trigger a user notice when WP_DEBUG is true.
  • Improved BuySellAds main script is now outputted on the 'wp_body_open' action.
  • Fixed Edge case were Custom CSS box would still show in the panel, instead of pointing to the native Customizer option.
  • Improved Renamed all default widgets that had titles like '-= CI Widget Title =-' to 'Theme - Widget Title'
  • Fixed Modernized default widgets (formatting, sanitization, defaults).
  • Improved Default widgets that had their title internally stored as 'ci_title' have been changed to 'title', so that internationalization plugins can hook normally. Existing titles have been migrated.
  • New Themes can now show a limited-sized logo instead of relying on javascript (retinajs). Themes can declare support for this new functionality by calling `add_filter( 'limit_logo_size_support', '__return_true' );` right before `get_template_part('panel/bootstrap');`. Full backwards compatibility is provided, as long as the two logo files (normal and retina) exist and are readable.
  • Fixed Media Manager scripts were updated to a more contemporary approach, fixing some console errors in the process.
  • New Introduced ci_theme_main_menu_fallback() as a generic main menu fallback.
  • Fixed A regression caused the excerpt cutoff text to not store the correct value upon saving the panel settings.
  • Improved TG M Plugin Activation v2.6.1
  • Fixed Some margin-specific classes would sometimes get overridden, affecting the panel's layout.
  • Improved As soon as a theme declares support for the native WordPress 'custom-background', the related options are migrated to the customizer.
  • Fixed Eliminated usages of ci_get_image_src() from the panel (replaced with wp_get_attachment_image_url())
  • Fixed Logo input field styling.
  • Fixed Twitter widget would sometimes throw some notices in some installations.
  • New "Theme - About Me" widget now has a button to select the image instead of pasting it.
  • Fixed Force term recount after import.
  • Fixed Edge case where a warning would be thrown while saving options, on themes that don't support the "Limit logo size" option.
  • Fixed Removed unused variable assignment in function calls.
  • Fixed Added translators' comments in panel widgets.
  • Fixed Non-canonical links to CSSIgniter
  • Fixed The theme's self update check now re-uses CSSIgniter Updater data if available.
  • Fixed Per-post color scheme dropdown shouldn't display minified files.
  • Fixed Refactored common code between per-post and panel's color schemes.
  • Fixed Ci_metabox_textarea() would double-escape output.
  • New Optional 'step' parameter in ci_metabox_input() for numeric inputs.
  • Removed Compatibility code for wp_body_open() in WordPress versions older than v5.2
  • Fixed Per-post color schemes wouldn't override the panel-selected value.
  • Fixed Per-post color schemes would silently discard customizer-added colors.
  • Fixed Improved logo markup
  • Fixed Ci_body_open()
  • New Theme version to 1.6.0
  • Improved Language file
  • Fixed Lang/en_US.mo
  • Fixed Lang/en_US.po
