Blocksy 1.8

Check out the some of the new features and improvements:

• Full rewrite of frontend JavaScript (100KB+ stripped out)
• Better loading strategy for dynamic CSS and Google Fonts
• Improved Local Google Fonts extension and better support for Variable Fonts
• No JavaScript smooth scroll implementation out of the box, with full support for transparent and sticky headers
• Enhanced Content Blocks: Hooks are now more stable and flexible. The hooks table now shows a preview of the location and conditions. It also allows you to quickly enable or disable a hook. Language based conditions are finally in there as well. You can even translate hooks via WPML, Polylang or TranslatePress.
• Live search for posts, pages, and custom post types in conditions. This comes in quite handy for sites with a very large number of posts.
• Responsive boxed and wide content area style
• 12 Shiny new colour palettes
• Elementor compatibility with theme global colors
• WooCommerce Cart and Checkout page improvements along with a more clean quantity input style
• More A11Y and RTL improvements
• New filters and actions for developers to extend Blocksy

Finally, they also released two new starter sites: Homi is a Gutenberg based WooCommerce starter site and Tasty is a foog blog starter site that allows you to share your favourite recipes – powered by Recipe Card Blocks. Both can be used with Gutenberg and Brizy.
