University of Illinois WordPress theme updated to version 2.2

The University of Illinois WordPress Theme Team and the Website Implementation Guidelines Group are pleased to announce the release of version 2.2 of the University of Illinois WordPress Theme. This has automatically been applied to sites running on Publish.illinois.edu (PIE) and users on cPanel or hosting on their own can update as soon as they like.

This release leverages the 2.7.x version of the Illinois Toolkit.

  • Whitespace and other minor CSS fixes have been added.
  • Popular settings for new websites have been added as defaults
  • Example images have been updated

Advanced users who wish to use components provided by toolkit 2.7 can do so by using an HTML block. Future releases over the summer will include native blocks for the components provided in toolkit 2.7.
