Thanks for sharing this, Bernhard!
Your welcome. How is currently maintaining the P2 theme? There hasn’t been an update for more than a year.
P2 has been in maintenance mode, but our developer is actually in the process of incorporating some fixes at the moment, so a new version should be coming out sooner rather than later.
Your suggested changes have been incorporated and will be included in the next version of P2. Stay tuned for the release and thanks again for helping make P2 better!
That’s great news. Always glad if I can help out.
I wanted to let you both know that a new version of P2 (1.5.7) has been released which includes these updates.
It’s available for download at the “Download P2” link here:
http://p2theme.com/ (scroll down for the link)
You can also read the changelog to find out what else has been updated.
This update is not currently available from your dashboard, since P2’s special functionality means it can’t be uploaded to the theme directory right now. You will need to install or update the theme manually via FTP..
If you have any questions or have any issues with this version of P2, please let us know.
Thanks for the notification. But what do you mean with your statement that P” cannot be uploaded into the themes directory? That is where I have it installed 🙂
Sorry for the confusing wording. I meant that we (the theme authors) can’t upload it to the theme directory at wordpress.org/themes so you won’t see an update notification in your dashboard.
Yes I realized that the P2 in the theme repo hasn’t been updated for quite a long time. Will it ever be updated there?
Unfortunately it’s not technically possible for us to upload it in the theme repo at this time. If that changes, we’ll let you know.
As I mentioned, you can do the same update via FTP instead, just overwriting your existing P2 folder with the new one.
