THEME UPDATE – VERSION 4 .0 – August 30th 2010

A huge update. Just re-download the new version from “My account -> Downloads”. Here is the list of all new features: (for demo, see the new Live Preview)

NEW FEATURES:
Slider Manager (as seen in my Showtime theme) – Order, add, remove and manage all your slides for slider, all values are separated from the theme itself so you can literally input anything you want and link it where you want. Or you can let the Slider to open a lightbox with a bigger image after clicking on the Slider, or both. You will love this.
New transitions for Slider (see live preview)
Gallery and Gallery Fullwidth page templates
Portfolio Fullwidth – both for category view and single post view
Custom Widgets – Twitter, Contact Form, Social Icons, Popular Posts
Color Skin Switcher in FreshPanel – you can now easily change Color Skins on the fly
Each category has a new option for “order by”. So you can order each category (even portfolio) differently, one for example alphabetically and another by dates, etc.
You can now limit how many posts will be displayed per page on Home, Blog, Portfolio and Search. Separately. See “freshpanel -> categories -> posts per page”
The whole slider area is now clickable, not only the Slide Title
…and much more (bugs reported so far were also fixed)
I can’t provide any instructions for updating since I’ve rewritten most of the files, so if you have done some changes to the php, css, js etc files in the past, you will need to re-do them on this new version from scratch. It’s up to you to decide if you want to upgrade, but I can guarantee that it’s really worth your time thanks to all these new great features I’ve created as a free bonus for your continuous support and interest in my work. Cheers!
THEME UPDATE – VERSION 3 .1 – June 17th 2010

WordPress v3.0 has been officially released, download from http://wordpress.org/download/
NEW FEATURES:
Excluding categories echoed the ID numbers on homepage – bug fixed
Other minor fixes
THEME UPDATE – VERSION 3 .0 – June 11th 2010

This new version includes two separate versions of this theme. One is the old WP2 .9 version and the NEW one (you are interested in) is the all NEW WP3 .0 version. The theme now uses lots of new WP3 features as listed below.

NEW FEATURES:
Menu Manager — Drag&Drop
FreshPanel — LOTS of new stuff in there
WP3 Post Types—Portfolio Posts
Better support for Video Post—You can choose between displaying the embed video normally OR displaying an image and after clicking on that image, the lightbox will pop out with the embed video.
Ability to disable the TimThumb automatic resizing of your pictures—You can manually upload image for each “size” (small, medium, large) which is handy for slider for instance
Ability to set the fixed height in px of the BIG IMAGEs in slider or completely turn it off. And no, the small images in slider remain same, you cant resize these, only that big one.
No need to fill Theme Options panel when you install it—Just click SAVE and it will fill in your database with the default setup.
MUCH better and all new documentation. 11 short videos showing you how to do everything.
The whole installation, customization and setup process is at least 3 times faster than before, thanks to the new WP3 .0 and FreshPanel (SO AWESOME ), you will love it guys
…and much more (also the bugs reported were also fixed)
If you are updating from the old lcp_v1.4 (for WP2 .9) version, you need to start from scratch. This means new WP3 installation, new database etc. Beginning this date I am proving support mainly to users with new WP3 version so I really suggest you to take some time and update your site. You can of course export your content (posts, pages, etc.) into an .xml file and then import it back to your new installation, so it’s not like you are going to “lose” your content.
THEME UPDATE – VERSION 1 .4 – May 4th 2010

Buyers, please redownload the files. Lots of bugs were fixed and the automatic sliding slider was added – you can adjust it via theme options. I’ve rewritten lots of code so I can’t provide detailed instructions how to update, you need to update the whole package. But you can backup your images and css files and then integrate them back to the new v1.4 to see if it fits.
THEME UPDATE – VERSION 1 .3 – November 20th ‘09

Buyers, please redownload the files. Lots of bugs were fixed and some wishes were fulfilled, mainly the preloading for images in slider. I highly encourage you to do that because first updates are likely to be the most important ones and fixes the important bugs!
