🚀 Performance improvements in Hueman free and pro

Dear Hueman theme users,

The new releases of Hueman free (v3.6.7) and Hueman Pro (v1.3.7) implement preload for the fonts embedded in the theme : Font Awesome for icons, and the self hosted Titillium font for the default typography. This allows modern browsers to start loading the font assets very early and therefore render the page significantly faster.

Hueman free and pro have been successfully tested with the latest version 5.5.3 of WordPress.

Changelog :

• improved : [performance] implement preload for Font Awesome icons
• improved : [performance] preload Titillium self hosted font when used
• improved : [performance] set Titillium self hosted font as default font
• tested : [WordPress] Hueman Pro and Free are 100% compatible with WP 5.5.3
• fixed : [Header banner] Added a new option to disable header image linking to home when no site title/description
• fixed : [Infinite scrool] WooCommerce, if infinite scroll is not supported,remove the “load more products” button
• added : [Infinite scroll] implement a new filters ‘czr_infinite_scroll_handle_text’ allowing developers to replace the text “Load more…” by a custom one

 

Hueman free and pro are 100% compatible with the latest version of Nimble Page Builder.

Better integration with the Nimble section builder

We have recently released a simple yet powerful section builder named Nimble Builder plugin.

Nimble is a free section builder intended to be the content creation companion of Hueman.

The plugin allows you to drag and drop pre-built sections, or create your own sections in live preview from the WordPress customizer. You can easily create column layouts, and add content like buttons, icons, Google maps and even contact forms in any page.

You can see a live example of Nimble sections in the Hueman theme.

You can easily install it from your WordPress admin, in Plugins > Add New.

We are currently working on a knowledge base to help you getting started with the plugin, but you can take a quick tour of the Nimble Builder plugin in action, in the WordPress live customizer, on the screenshots below.

Creating a page with 3 pre-built sections

 

 

The search button is now displayed in tablet devices.

 

 

The footer credits now uses parsable tags like {{year}}

 

Filtering of the blog page posts by category

You can access this new feature in the live customizer > Front page content.

Then scroll down until you find the option named “Apply a category filter to your home / blog posts“.

You can select one or several categories to filter your blog page posts.

 

Nested menus can now be expanded on mobile devices

The option is available in the live customizer > header design > header menus, at the bottom of the option panel.

You can test it in action in the live demo of Hueman.
