Lots of messing about with code for Tarski 1.2.4, but not much terribly exciting I’m afraid.

The changelog has all the details, the highlight of which is obviously a new header by Martin. He actually made Orbits a while ago but it slipped our collective mind and so wasn’t included until now.

I also did a fair bit of CSS work for this version, including some improvements to our rather rudimentary print stylesheet, and a new stylesheet for those writing in RTL languages. Not actually being able to read or write Hebrew, Arabic etc. I’m sure there are plenty of problems with it, so if you use Tarski and a language that is written from right to left, please leave some feedback on the forum so we can improve on what we’ve done so far.

While we’re on the subject of languages, we’ve removed the language files from the theme download, as I explained the other day. The Older/Newer post links are still a holdout in the universalisation process; there’s a fix in the pipeline for a future version but I’m afraid it didn’t make it into this release.

Bugs and suggestions on the forum as always.

With so many translations pouring in for Tarski, it’s become less and less practical to include them in the main release, because there are a fair few files, and more importantly, because it means people have to wait for a new version of the theme to get new translations.

We’ve decided to release translations separately, in a zip file which we’ll update each time we receive a new or updated translation.

To use a particular translation, just extract the zip file and move the file you want to use into the root Tarski directory.

The list of translations included in the file will be kept, as before, on the localisation page, along with the download link above. If you create a new translation for Tarski, please post it on the forum.
