Forest

Requires goblog 0.14.0 (unchanged).

What's changed

Removed four templates goblog never renders: posts.html, presentations.html, projects.html and research.html. The Research page renders through the page templates, so it is unaffected. Three of the removed templates pointed at photos and a video that goblog 0.15.0 no longer ships (goblogplatform/GoBlog#677).

Upgrading

Nothing to do. No template goblog uses has changed.

Requires goblog 0.14.0.

What's changed

The login page offers goblog's password form (the shared _password_login partial) under the GitHub button when the site has a password account, the admin account goblog 0.14.0's install wizard creates. Until now a site with both GitHub login and a password admin showed only GitHub on this theme (goblogplatform/GoBlog#666).

Upgrading

min_goblog_version is now 0.14.0, so the directory offers this only once your goblog is on that release. Upgrade goblog first.

Requires goblog 0.13.0 (unchanged from v1.4.0).

What's changed

On a post page, the link sections and the comments sit on cards. The admin-only sections (Backlinks, Linked Posts, External Links, External Backlinks) and the comments were drawn straight onto the background photo, outside the card the post body sits on, where the text was hard to read. Each group now gets its own card (#10).

Upgrading

Nothing to do beyond updating the theme from Admin → Themes.

Requires goblog 0.13.0.

What's changed

The footer's "Powered by goblog" line comes from goblog's shared _powered_by partial instead of being written out in the theme. It now links to goblog.live rather than the GitHub repository, and a site can hide it with the Show "Powered by goblog" setting under Admin → Settings → Appearance (goblogplatform/GoBlog#644).

Upgrading

min_goblog_version is now 0.13.0, the first release with the partial, so the directory offers this only once your goblog is on that release.

Upgrade goblog first. On anything older the theme's footer.html references a template that does not exist.

Requires goblog 0.12.0.

What's changed

Signing in with GitHub is goblog's job now. The button is a plain link to /login/github; the theme no longer assembles the authorize URL in an inline script — where window.location went into redirect_uri unescaped — nor handles the ?code= that came back. goblog completes the exchange server-side against a state it minted, so a code obtained for one account can no longer be replayed into another visitor's browser (goblogplatform/GoBlog#631, #637).

The button's own URL comes from the server too, as .github_login_url, rather than being built with a nested template conditional in every theme (goblogplatform/GoBlog#639).

Upgrading

min_goblog_version is now 0.12.0, so the directory offers this only once your goblog is on that release — it will not install a theme whose sign-in button has no URL to point at.

Upgrade goblog first. On 0.12.0 an older version of this theme still signs in, because goblog restarts the flow when a callback arrives with no state (goblogplatform/GoBlog#640), but it gets there via a second round trip to GitHub. Update the theme rather than relying on that.

Prepares the theme for goblog 0.11.0, which loads its CDN scripts with defer (goblogplatform/GoBlog#624).

What's changed

With defer, jQuery and highlight.js are not defined while the page is still parsing, so inline scripts that called them during parse would throw — no syntax highlighting, and a dead GitHub login button. Those calls now wait for DOMContentLoaded, which fires only after every deferred script has run.

• footer.html — hljs.highlightAll()
• login.html — the ?code= exchange and the email login form wiring
• login.html — the GitHub button's href is now set with document.getElementById(...).href during parse, rather than through jQuery. It is never briefly inert, and that line no longer needs a library at all.

Compatibility

Install this before upgrading to goblog 0.11.0. A DOMContentLoaded handler behaves the same whether or not the scripts are deferred, so this release also works on goblog 0.10.0 — min_goblog_version is unchanged.

On 0.11.0 without this release, posts lose syntax highlighting and the GitHub login button does nothing.

• Post, page and comment bodies are rendered by goblog on the server; the theme no longer ships showdown or DOMPurify. Embeds that DOMPurify used to strip (YouTube, Instagram) work again, and the body reaches crawlers and link-preview bots.
• The comment Preview button shows the draft as plain text, since no markdown library is loaded on the page.
• Requires goblog 0.10.0. An older goblog would render blank post and page bodies; the installer enforces this.

• The search page includes goblog's shared _search_results partial instead of rendering the post list itself, so plugin, theme and docs hits appear in the site search. The result colours the template used to set inline now come from goblog.css.
• Requires goblog 0.8.0.

First release: the forest theme as a directory theme — goblog's built-in forest templates and CSS, layered on the default theme, with the backdrop bundled. Requires goblog 0.5.0 or newer.
