This major release provides additional refinement and control to the Align theme and fixes priority issues which have been reported by our customers (thank you, all!)
We've added powerful new theme, section, and block settings throughout the theme and we've continued to optimize our underlying codebase to prepare for some exciting new updates in our next major release.
This release also includes our fourth major round of theme localization support, including support for Korean, Norwegian, Russian, Ukrainian, Vietnamese languages (👋 🇰🇷 🇳🇴 🇷🇺 🇺🇦 🇻🇳). This is in addition to the languages added in our previous major releases (👋 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇮🇹 🇱🇹 🇪🇸 🇨🇳 🇳🇱 🇯🇵 🇵🇹 🇧🇷 🇩🇰 🇬🇷 🇮🇳 🇹🇷) and brings us to a total of twenty supported languages.
This is Align's fifth major release, and our eleventh overall since Align went live. Please reference the changelog to learn about everything included in in previous v1.4 release!
We'd once again like to thank our customers for your trust and patience in our work. As always, we are here to help and we welcome your feedback! Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any/all questions, comments, or concerns. Your feedback is helping to build a better theme.
