XF2 Style [Pixelexit] Bolt Dark 2.2.12

New

• New search location "Navigation"
• New Google font family "Inter"
• New TikTok social media link (can link to a TikTok in the social media options Style properties -> Basic options)
• New Mastodon social media link (can link to a Mastodon in the social media options Style properties -> Basic options)
• New documentation for typography linked

Changes

• Google font embeds have been updated with the correct preconnect hints (should technically load Google font files faster)
• Removed Italics from Google Font embeds as they're not commonly used at all (post messages don't use custom google fonts by default)
• Changed Light + Medium font weight to 400 by default to avoid Google font display issues. These are more power features I'd say as XenForo doesn't use light/medium by default.

Fixes

• Node hover colors did not work properly when node spacer option was enabled.
• Added missing border below selected nav when "bottom border" selected state was active and the navigation was sticky
• Fixed a mobile issue for large sidebars while using the canvas mode

Changelog​

This update simply fixes a few minor bugs and addresses the outdated template that is appearing on the latest version of XF (2.2.9).

Bolt Dark has undergone a massive overhaul for colors. Please see the screenshots below to compare.

This update simply fixes a few minor bugs and addresses the two outdated templates that are appearing on the latest version of XF (2.2.6).

Templates changed:
message_macros (XF updates)
node_list_category (PE updates)
post_macros (XF updates)
xb.less (PE updates)

Changes

• Optimized a background image (welcome notices) that shipped in the folder with all styles saving a ton of space! Took XenBase archive from 1.2 megs down to 140kb!
• Changed child div's of the H2 for forum categories into spans for valid HTML
• Prefix + user banner CSS formatting to avoid LESS compilation issues
• Adjusted editor styling to inherit more from the style properties and not rely on our CSS
• Changed CTA to use a contrasted color from the background rather than relying on the normal button color

Style specific changes

• Bolt
  • Adjusted some of the colors around the style so they're not hard-coded
  • Optimized header image to reduce the archive size
  • Prefix hover style caused a bug
  • Sidebar icons are no longer floating to the right. You can add this to your extra.less if you want the float to come back:
    
    Code:

    .p-body-sidebar .block .block-minorHeader:before, .p-body-sideNavContent .block .block-minorHeader:before

• Omni
  • Removed a large unused image from the style folder to reduce the archive size
• Fusion Gamer
  • Optimized some of the included images to reduce the archive size
• Edge
  • Removed old notice images that were no longer used to reduce the archive size
• Nova
  • Optimized some of the included images to reduce the archive size

New

• New option to enable the icons inside the action bar. Previously, these were always on with no ability to disable them (Style properties -> Messages ->Message action bar icons )

Changes

• Message links across multiple areas have been adjusted. Areas such as the resources and other plugins would not inherit from Style properties -> Messages -> Message links

Fixes

• Footer logo placement will now work in blocks 2-5
• Block footer text color is legible now when used in the custom footer
• Social icons in the footer now show in mobile
• Share icon is no longer hidden in mobile when set to circular now

IMPORTANT: Canvas layout logo will now respect the dimensions set under Style properties -> Basic options. If you use Canvas, you made need to adjust your width/height settings here.
