wp-Typography
Improve your web typography with: hyphenation, space control, intelligent character replacement, and CSS hooks.
An errant "settings" link was being injected into the "Plugins" page. It has been removed.
2.0.3 - January 3, 2011
Removed "text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;" from the plugin's default CSS rules as a bug in Chrome with this statement causes all soft-hyphens to be displayed throughout the text. This will only correct the settings in new downloads. So, if you have an older version installed, remove the "* {text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;}" statement from the "Styling for CSS Hooks" textarea in this plugin's options page (the very last field).
2.0.2 - July 16, 2010
Rolled back application of wp-Typography's title filter to bloginfo('name') and bloginfo('description') to resolve conflicts introduced with RSS feeds
2.0.1 - July 14, 2010
Applied wp-Typography's title filter to bloginfo('name') and bloginfo('description')
Prevented processing of wp_title() and wp_post_title() so that HTML tags do not appear in page title
2.0 - July 7, 2010
Simplified acronym identification to not include some obscure uppercase characters. This will reduce support for some non-English languages, but it resolves an issue of catastrophic failure (where the entire page fails to load) with certain server configurations.
Security Fix: Prevented comments with exceptionally long strings from causing fatal PHP error.
Added *{text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;} to default CSS rules to enable kerning and ligatures in supported browsers. Note this will not appear for upgrades, only new installs
Replaced quotation language styles with individual selection of primary and secondary quotation styles. NOTE: this change requires reselection of quotation styles for anyone using non-English preferences.
added new 100 character option for max widow length protected
added new 100 character option for max pull length for widow protection
moved the processing of widow handling after hyphenation so that max-pull would not be compared to the length of the adjacent word, but rather the length of the adjacent word segment (i.e. that after a soft hyphen)
took advantage of new feature in PHP Typography 1.1 where we could just set user settings without first setting phpTypography defaults for a slight performance improvement.
Decoded special HTML characters (for feeds only) to avoid invalid character injection (according to XML's specs)
