Fictioneer 5.4.6 Stable
released this
2023-07-10 05:57:51 +08:00 | 3672 commits to main since this releaseThis primarily fixes issues with the text-to-speech feature on mobile and specifically in Safari, which apparently does not support lookbehind regular expressions. Thanks for nothing, Apple! There is now also a modal for the TTS settings with some instructions on how to make this work on Android devices. Why this needs microphone permissions is beyond me.
The default voice is currently Samatha (en-US) or the first English language if it's not found. There might be an update in the future to select a voice depending on the site language, but the problem is that most voices are kinda garbage. Just selecting any first one is not necessarily the best course of action.
Please consider supporting me on Ko-fi if you like the theme.
Release Notes:
- Fixed: TTS in Safari (ffs Apple!)
- Fixed: Container shadows in Safari (ffs Apple!!)
- Improvement: Modal for TTS settings
- Improvement: Updated and unified some icons

Fictioneer 5.4.0 Stable
released this
2023-06-14 05:09:31 +08:00 | 3767 commits to main since this releaseIMPORTANT! Clear all your caches, especially the story data caches under Fictioneer > Tools.
Big one! So this was starting out (again) as maintenance and performance release but went overboard (again). Well, technically I only added one feature but probably one people would have expected to already be there anyway: sorting, ordering, and filtering for lists! Yes, I originally did not add that because the authors I made the theme for use plugins -- which is both boon and bane, but that's another issue. You can check out the demo site to see the "SOF" in action.
There are not that many options, sure. Fictioneer is not meant for community archives with thousands of stories, so the usefulness of filters is debatable. Also, there is the search feature for anything more. Taxonomy archives get an additional menu for the post type, which you do not need in a scoped list. And now you can choose a time range like on your other favorite sites! You can even use custom ones in the URL, as long as it is a positive integer (days) or strtotime compatible string. New filters have been added to custmize the menu options.
Anyway, have some notes. Please consider supporting me on Ko-fi if you like the theme.
Release Notes:
- Feature: Add sort-order-filter interface to lists
- Remove superfluous elements after page load (need determined client-side)
- Disable autocomplete on more control inputs
- Further reduced elements and CSS to improve render performance
- Remove all sibling selectors from CSS (apparently, they were extremely costly)
- Add date format constants for cards, allowing for better customization in child themes
- Cards now show either the publish or modified date depending on the orderby option
- Refactored many templates and partials (relevant if you replaced any in child themes)
- Refactored some and cleaned up all JS files
- Added a bunch more ARIA labels for better accessibility
- Fixed: Chapter mobile menu panel will no longer show up on search pages
- Fixed: AJAX comments that broke at some point
- Fixed: AJAX nonce being wrong due to local caching
- Fixed: Chapter folding not honoring settings
- Fixed: Edit/Delete buttons not properly showing up on your comments (if enabled)
- Fixed: Hidden stories and chapters not being properly excluded from RSS, sitemap, and search engines
- Fixed: TTS is no longer stopped when you load the site in another tab
- Fixed: Footer menu wrapping weirdly when overflowing
- Fixed: Bookmarks save the full URL again to avoid issues with particular permalinks
