These are also noted in the changelog. They were requirements for inclusion in the WP Theme Repo. Those constants when defined tell Thematic to use it's functions instead of the core WP functions required by the new WP Theme Review Guidelines.<br /> I am familiar with your child themes and they will break on body classes alone, if you do not define those constants in every install that you upgrade.<br /> 3. That is entirely up to whether you want to continue using the Thematic functions or if you prefer the WP core set for each given area of functionality.<br /> 4. At this time the only official code snippet recommendations are posted in this thread</p> <p>The biggest issues reported by forum members so far are:<br /> * the class / stylesheet issues related to the constants mention above<br /> * prior navigation menu customizations breaking with the new version<br /> * the widgets being cast into the inactive bin</p> <p> I would suggest you test before pushing an upgrade to a live client site. I also suggest using a maintenance page or maintenance plugin solution while upgrading critical sites before pushing the upgrade.</p> <p>@DavyB Thanks, we'll be working on that. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/thematic-0976-is-online-important-release-notes#post-16332 Fri, 15 Oct 2010 18:49:38 +0000 DavyB 16332@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>You wont see the release notes if you first see the upgrade as part of WPs update checks !!</p> <p>0.9.7.7 still has the old code snippet in the thematicchildsampletheme even though its commented out </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/thematic-0976-is-online-important-release-notes#post-16330 Fri, 15 Oct 2010 18:24:00 +0000 sfrangos 16330@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Hi All -</p> <p>First... big thanks to Chris and Gene on the new version.
