First up, there was an update to the way that videos are handled on mobile pages. It turns out that in one of the WordPress updates (somewhere between the 2.8 and 2.9.2 versions), the way that videos were output to the browser changed slightly. This meant that the video parser in our mobile plugin didn’t pick up the correct source and didn’t show the video.

All fixed now though.

Bug Fixes

Next up there were a couple of bug fixes:

• A quick one to fix a couple of foreign char issues – there was a string that wasn’t being escaped – it is now.
• Even quicker one to parse links before lists – that means that if you have a link inside a list, it’ll now work ok and not throw an error.

Mobile Themes

And last, but certainly not least, were a couple of awesome new mobile themes – designed by Ryan DC. He did the last set (Wooden/Scrap Book/Obsidian), but he’s outdone himself with the latest 2 – iPhone Light and iPhone Dark – here they are in action:

Thanks for the designs Ryan, very much looking forward to the next set!

So there you have it – a couple of theme improvements, a minor bug fix here and a tweak there. Have you used any of the new themes yet, or maybe you’re using one of the older mobile themes but have tweaked them yourselves? I’d love to see a comment if you have!
