Headway 1.5.5 Beta is here!

You ask, we delivered. We are extremely excited to announce we just released Headway 1.5.5 Beta to those Headway users with a Developer’s License. Our users asked for changes and we needed to do some bug fixes and here they are.

Why 1.5.5 and not 1.5.2? Because there is a major change in the user interface. You can see below what has been changed in the visual editor.

Bug Fixes:

  • PHP 4 COMPATIBILITY. YES, REALLY!
  • Invisible visual editor bug fixed. No more creating new admin user.
  • Switching to tags system page from the layout chooser fixed.
  • Letter spacing of none/0 saves now.
  • A few easy hooks were not working correctly. Those are fixed now.
  • Not thoroughly tested yet: Twitter should be less “touchy” now. And actually fetch the feed.
  • Duplicate header/navigation all fixed.

New Features:

  • Completely new interface! Already? Yes…
  • Visual editor speeeeed! The loading bar is gone on the visual editor. Many things were optimized.
  • Site Title: There have been numerous sites not using a tagline, thus having a title like “| Site Name”. We’ve added an if statement to remove that pipe character if the have no tagline.
  • Header link image URL: If the image uploader fails, you now have the ability to manually type in the URL to your header. Why we removed this in 1.5? We don’t know.
  • Mass Font Change: With one click of the mouse, you can change every single font on your site.

Wow! Downloading now!!

Even with the fixes and changes, Headway is still the most advanced theme on the market. Plus, with the new Visual Editor, it doesn't matter if you know how to code or not. Simply make the changes on-the-fly and you'r good to go.

Thanks again, Clay and Grant, for an over-the-top product and stellar customer support. You've got another Raving Fan! :-)

Nice to see the continued development, Grant. I still have my eye on Headway. Pardon the pun, but I might finally have some time to make some headway with trying it out later this month. I'll be in touch.

I have a developers license and do not see the link to download are you sure it is available?
