[4.0.0] - 2017-07-31

Added

• .wp-custom-logo body class.
• Allow the shortcode, autoembeds, embedded, and attached methods of the media grabber to be enabled/disabled.
• New Fonts API. This allows developers to register, enqueue, etc. fonts just like scripts and styles. The API natively supports font stylesheets bundled with the theme or the Google Fonts API.
• Introduces the hybrid_get_theme_mod() wrapper function, which provides a hybrid_theme_mod_{$name}_default filter hook for filtering the default theme mod.
• Adds a the hybrid_is_layout() conditional tag for checking if the current page has a specific layout.
• Adds a hybrid_is_script_debug() conditional function for checking if WP_SCRIPT_DEBUG is set.
• Adds the hybrid_sprintf_theme_dir() and hybrid_sprintf_theme_uri() functions. These functions replace %1$s with the template and %2$s with the stylesheet directory path and URI, respectively.
• Introduces hybrid_get_embed_template() and an embed template part system. This allows theme authors to create embed templates based on the post type, format, etc.
• Full admin support for taxonomy term layouts.
• Added the hybrid() wrapper function for returning the instance of the Hybrid object.
• Adds the hybrid_widget_exists() conditional function for checking if a widget (by class name) exists.
• Introduces the hybrid_comment_parent_link() and hybrid_get_comment_parent_link() functions for displaying or getting the comment parent link of a child comment.
• Creates a new hybrid_get_template_part() function, which is a more robust version of the core WP get_template_part() function.
• Introduces hybrid_verify_nonce_post() and hybrid_verify_nonce_request() for easier nonce checking in the admin.
• Adds the hybrid_get_content_hierarchy() helper function for content and embed templates. It retrieves the hierarchy based on post type, format, etc.
• New .menu-item-parent-archive nav menu item class when viewing a post and the post type archive item is in the menu.
• New template registration system. This is post templates on steroids while being completely compatible with core WP's post template system. Term and user templates are supported but no UI is yet implemented.
• New filter on document_title_parts. This is actually a replacement for the old filter on wp_title. This brings us up to date with new doc title hooks and uses less code.
• Adds the hybrid_post_media() and hybrid_get_post_media() wrapper functions for displaying and getting post media. These are wrappers for the media grabber.
• New registry system for registering and storing collections of data on the page. This replaces some of the old factory/registry methods from before and combines the functionality into a single class.
• Added the hybrid_attr hook for a more global filter on attributes.
• Added the hybrid_attr_{$slug}_class hook for theme authors to filter just the class attribute.

Changed

• Split the archive description filter into two distinct functions: one for filtering changing the text output and a later function for formatting.
• Registers Hybrid's styles on the front end, embeds, login page, and admin for use.
• Attribute system now allows for 0 or '0' as valid attribute values. false is for explicit empty values.
• Overhauled the attributes (hybrid_attr()) system. The framework no longer defines Schema.org as a default. It leaves this up to theme authors. Additionally, it only sets defaults for the body, post, and comment attributes. The framework is just providing the foundation for theme authors to build what they want without getting in their way.
• The Hybrid class is now a singleton class. Theme authors should no longer call new Hybrid(). The framework will launch itself.
• User-selected page templates now overrule the theme author's choice if the theme author included a front-page.php.
• Adds the Hybrid Core version to its own stylesheets when registering.
• The template hierarchy system now uses the *_template_hierarchy filter hooks as opposed to the *_template filter hooks. This means that our code runs before looking up templates, which speeds things up.
• Updated the meta registration calls to be in line with the new WP method of registration.

Removed

• All deprecated functions have been completely removed or added to the "removed" section. Version 4.0.0 is a major release and not concerned with back-compat.
• Remove old post template admin and functionality since core WP now supports this. It only took WP 7 years to catch up to the awesomeness that Hybrid users have long been enjoying.
• Mobile toggle script was removed in favor of just letting theme authors handle it.
• The global $hybrid variable is now dead. Good riddance.
• Add the render_content() method for JS-based customizer controls to make sure we overwrite the WP_Customize_Control method.
• The Post Styles feature is now gone. It was rarely used and just added bloat.
• Old filter on wp_title.
• Media meta, template, and layout hybrid factory-registry classes.

Fixed

• Logic bug with post layout check.
• Post format body class error check.
• Make sure filters on hybrid_content_template work correctly.
• Remove 100% max width default for embeds, which caused the WP visual editor to infinitely grow in height when embedding an audio/video file.
• Make sure we have a nav menu object before attempting to get its name in hybrid_get_menu_name().
• Missing href attribute for the hybrid_get_image_size_links() function.
• Make sure a layout exists before attempting to use it as the layout.
• Fixed incorrect call when unregistering a theme layout.
• Load the minified admin CSS file.
• Use https for the WordPress.org link.
• Adds the missing .page-template-default body class when no custom template is in use.
• Change the search results title to Search results for: %s. This avoids double quotation marks.

Security

• Run wp_kses_post() over the content when splitting media from it in the media grabber.

• WordPress.org and theme URLs now use the translated URLs if available so that translators can link to language-specific pages/sites.
• Language-specific PHP files are now loaded from the child theme (first) and parent theme.
• New media metadata class and functions. This makes it easy to get media file metadata for attachments (limited to audio, video, and images).

• Post stylesheets extension now built into the framework. Added extra functions.

Changed

• Files and folders were renamed and restructured to make a bit more sense.
• Only load extensions if both the theme supports them and if the file exists.
• Overhauled the constants.
• Coding style updates. PHPDoc blocks stay the same. Single-line comments within functions now use // and single-line comments within the file use #.
• The theme-specific "template" <meta> tag is now a "generator" <meta> tag.
• All framework constants have a trailing slash.

Deprecated

• hybrid_loop_title() in favor of WP's the_archive_title().
• hybrid_loop_description() in favor of WP's the_achive_description().
• loop_pagination() in favor of WP's the_posts_pagination().

Removed
