In reply to: [GeneratePress] Why all the undocumented updates?Thanks, bdbrown, for the pointer to the in-bundle changelog.txt file. I didn’t think to look there.
Tom, this theme is great in so many ways and I’m so impressed with its quality. Kudos to you on that. And I can certainly appreciate the need for timely updates, so kudos to you for keeping up that schedule.
My remarks are more about my frustration with maintaining a child theme concurrently with a changing parent theme. My child theme CSS selectors may follow a different logic/structure than the parent theme. Or I may have made an adjustment in my child theme to adjust something in the parent theme. An otherwise inconsequential and well-tested change in the parent theme would not have been tested with my specific child theme. My child theme adjustments, which worked well earlier, could then conflict with the subsequent parent theme updates. It would be up to me to test the child theme with the updates.
Looking now at the changelog, I can see things that give me cause for concern: “Adjust main title line height on mobile”, “Fix caption alignment”, “Fix table layout issues”, and so on.
I don’t have a solution in mind. From my end I may need to freeze my updates to one that is known to work with my child theme, as you suggest. Perhaps from your end there could be a GeneratePress 2015 theme that remains frozen/fixed, while a GeneratePress 2016 theme that could be the next major version with ongoing updates. I don’t know.
In any event, I hope my remarks are taken as positive feedback. I want to stress again that I’m impressed with the GeneratePress theme and hope to continue using it. And the level of support here, its quality and its promptness are exemplary. A model for others to follow.
