    Hi everyone!

    * Added option to disable the search box in the theme’s top / navigation bar

    * Added link to toggle all options tabs at once

    * WordPress 3.2 sync:

    * Removed W3C code validation icons

    * Arrows for multi-level menu items are now available for default menu as well (i.e. not using Custom Menus)

    * Completely rewritten the CSS for navigation menus making it much simpler and less redundant

    For some reason, 1.4a is not handling my social sharing code very well.

    I copied this code from my book blog, where it works very well:

    <!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
    <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style">
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
    <a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">var addthis_config = {"data_track_clickback":true};</script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-4d9b277415c98d35"></script>
    <!-- AddThis Button END -->

    and posted it to my science blog, where I am testing the new theme, and it shows up as this:

    <!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
    <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style">
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a>
    <a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
    <a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>
    </div>
    var addthis_config = {"data_track_clickback":true};

    <!-- AddThis Button END -->

    which doesn’t work. For some reason, the new theme is stripping out the javascript components which make it work.

    Also, custom CSS is not saving. I add it, save it, and view my site, and it looks beautiful. But then if I alter any other settings, the custom CSS disappears.

    I added text-shadow to my header text, and it was there, but now if you look, the header is plain.

    Thanks for the report, Ken! Please replace the graphene/admin/validator.php with the updated one here: http://code.google.com/p/graphene/source/browse/trunk/graphene/admin/validator.php?spec=svn148&r=148

    On a side note, you gotta try using description for the navigation menu. The menu will look much better with it:

    If you’re not using the Custom Menu feature, there is now an option in the Edit Page screen where you can enter the description for the menu item.

    If you’re using Custom Menu, click on the Screen Options at the top right of the WP Admin > Appearance > Menus page and tick “Description”.

    Hi Syahir,

    I have tested and I found a few bugs/suggestions for the beta/next version.

    1) The menu is very fals, when I use the menu-function in the theme-options: http://www.yoshiuniversum.de/?wptheme=Graphene/graphene1.4

    (If I use it as default, the first menu-panel is full but it is also false).

    Website with Theme 1.3.1: http://www.yoshiuniversum.de/?wptheme=Graphene/graphene1.3.1

    2) If I update the Theme, I always must configure (like disable the slider, remove RSS-Icon etc.). Perhaps you can include a function that only new functions must be configure when update.

    3) How can I make a small menu if I don’t want a description (like Graphene 1.3.1)

    4) There is a too big destination from the end of footer to the end of page

    5) Why is my english so bad?

    EDIT: First link was false. Changed.

    Hi Tigeryoshi,

    1. WordPress automatically assigns the excerpt for the menu item’s description, which is inappropriate for the new menu design. You’d need to change each description to just a few words.

    2. This shouldn’t be happening, and is probably a result of the bug reported by Ken above.

    3. If you don’t specify any description, the menu will automatically revert to the smaller menu.

    4. That’s intentional. You can adjust this using the Custom CSS or child theme.

    5. Keep on improving 🙂

    1+3) Bad function of wordpress. Now, the font is too big. I found the old version better.

    4) I think it would be better if it is by default smaller. But perhaps that’s subjective. (And I think the Footer is also big)

    6) Perhaps a new function that disable the “Return to the top” and “Copyright” text in the footer without changing the CSS.

    A question: How can I use the new “Audio” oder “Video” Tags?

    1+3. Yes, the font is too big if you have many menu items. The design really is intended for use like the screenshot I posted. If you have many menu items, there’s more space in the secondary menu.

    6. There’s already an option to disable the copyright text. I’m adding an option to disable the return to top link now 🙂

    Regarding the “Audio” and “Video” tags, or “Post formats” as they are known, whenever you create or edit a post, there’ll be a “Format” option to the right hand side of the Edit Post screen where you can select the format of the post.

    Done. I suggest you checkout the latest revisions from the theme’s Google Code project page: http://code.google.com/p/graphene/source/checkout
