Ehren Posted April 30, 2015 at 01:08 AM Posted April 30, 2015 at 01:08 AM Hi everyone, This is just a quick update regarding the status of IPSFocus themes. Uniform 4.x has been completed and is currently sitting on my development board ready to be released, however there are a few fairly critical bugs with the theme system which has unexpectedly halted it's release. Other themes have been started, and should be completed within a few days, however their releases will also likely be delayed due to these same bugs. The main bugs affecting the releases are "Broken theme settings" and "Failed resource imports". Additionally, designers are waiting for "difference reports" to be released, which will inform us of what code changes have been made between versions. This is vital for keeping themes upgraded, however these reports have not been released for 4.x even though the feature was available in 3.4.x. Unfortunately these issues are currently out of my control - however I've been doing my best to have these bugs fixed, and have requested that the difference reports are released. Once these issues are fixed, expect new themes to be released quickly! 2
Lord Dom Posted April 30, 2015 at 03:40 AM Posted April 30, 2015 at 03:40 AM Really good to hear I can't wait, I purchased it like a week ago and still waiting to implement it. 1
Atrumcavus Posted April 30, 2015 at 08:40 AM Posted April 30, 2015 at 08:40 AM You're doing a good job man, especially putting up with all of us hanging around like vultures, waiting for themes to be released. I on the other hand, can't even work out how to ugprade from 3.4.6 to 3.4.7 let alone onto 4.0.2. Hah! 1
foroiphone Posted April 30, 2015 at 08:47 AM Posted April 30, 2015 at 08:47 AM Thanks, and there is a demo site to see in action the 4 themes?

I'm glad there's interest in my themes Thanks, and there is a demo site to see in action the 4 themes? There is, but it's private at the moment. It'll be made public in the future
Pooba Posted April 30, 2015 at 05:49 PM Posted April 30, 2015 at 05:49 PM its cool,none of this is your fault,just seems like ipb is cutting corners on things.thanks for keeping us inform.
AnonyWS Posted April 30, 2015 at 06:33 PM Posted April 30, 2015 at 06:33 PM I hope you'll continue making the themes, as waiting for them to fix it would take some time. Also maybe let us 'fix' the themes manually? instead of waiting for ips fix
Tibory Posted April 30, 2015 at 09:21 PM Posted April 30, 2015 at 09:21 PM I hope you'll continue making the themes, as waiting for them to fix it would take some time. Also maybe let us 'fix' the themes manually? instead of waiting for ips fix It's a far more effect use of Ehrens time to wait for the fix and fix all the themes at once rather than having to provide each client with the fix. Please just be patient like the rest

Also maybe let us 'fix' the themes manually? instead of waiting for ips fix Fixing manually? I don't know if you're a designer but some bugs can be fixed only by designers. Because this isn't all easy...
The Heff Posted April 30, 2015 at 10:32 PM Posted April 30, 2015 at 10:32 PM It's a good thing everyone keeps checking in. I'm glad there's interest in my themes That's an understatement. I think we're all as giddy as kids with candy. Thanks for the update Ehren.
Ehren Posted May 1, 2015 at 12:52 AM Author Posted May 1, 2015 at 12:52 AM I'll be continually creating the themes on my development board, and will post sneak peaks in the Customer area for those who are interested. Once IPS fix their bugs, I'll do a "mass release" and release them all at once 2

Once IPS fix their bugs, I'll do a "mass release" and release them all at once That's nice idea. So now you will start for creating new themes also?I would like to see a blue navy theme with the text in yellow/amber
Ehren Posted May 1, 2015 at 07:29 AM Author Posted May 1, 2015 at 07:29 AM Once the existing premades have been upgraded, I'll be getting started on new designs. 1

Ehren Posted May 4, 2015 at 02:24 AM Author Posted May 4, 2015 at 02:24 AM That bar is driving me nuts The IPS dev's are currently going through my development board trying to fix bugs, so I've paused development for the weekend. 3
SoA Posted May 4, 2015 at 05:46 AM Posted May 4, 2015 at 05:46 AM I'm still waiting for a few apps/mods to come about anyway : Shoutbox Custom Sidebar Blocks Group Colour On User Links

ric4rdo Posted May 4, 2015 at 09:35 PM Posted May 4, 2015 at 09:35 PM IPB 4.0.3 released "bug uniform" fix? @ehren
Ehren Posted May 5, 2015 at 12:03 AM Author Posted May 5, 2015 at 12:03 AM IPB 4.0.3 released "bug uniform" fix? @ehren The bug isn't with Uniform - it's with the 4.x theme system (in the admin cpanel). I'm working with Matt (IPS developer) this week on fixing the problems. 2

Any update? Their support is quiet slow, i marked my ticket as critical - 1 week later they replied two useless replies.
Feneroin Posted May 11, 2015 at 08:35 PM Posted May 11, 2015 at 08:35 PM I think these bugs are now fixed with 4.0.5 Ehren?http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/410348-405/?do=findComment&comment=2547103
Ehren Posted May 12, 2015 at 12:11 AM Author Posted May 12, 2015 at 12:11 AM I think these bugs are now fixed with 4.0.5 Ehren?http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/410348-405/?do=findComment&comment=2547103 There were a lot of bugs affecting detailed themes - that post by Charles doesn't really outline what fixes have been made, and I haven't heard from Matt regarding my list of issues either. Difference reports are also yet to be released, so my themes are currently "stuck" on 4.0.2.
