Reading Time: < 1 minuteToday, I created the first version of Viento 3.0 for WoltLab Suite 3.0.
Viento is a style family based on the colors of colors of Google’s Material Design. The style is very light weight with only a few (S)CSS modifications since the goal of this style is to prove that it’s easy to create a good looking style for WoltLab Suite 3.0 without having to write a lot of (S)CSS.

Reading Time: < 1 minuteToday the Elevenfour Labs moved to a new home – if you like to say so.
The content is the same – though some old pages were removed – and you’ll still find here what you found here before. The only difference is the addition of /content/ to the URL – so instead of https://elevenfour.net/labs/ it’s now https://elevenfour.net/content/labs/.
This was necessary to be future proof because I came up with some ideas I had for Elevenfour but more on that topic some time later.
Back in 2008 I created a style which has become the most downloaded style on Elevenfour in 2016 – the X-Style. Since 2008 this style has seen three redesigns. To be honest: I never expected that the style could be a success like this. So when announcing that I would design styles for WoltLab Suite the X-Style was set to be adapted for WoltLab Suite right from the beginning.
One of the main goals of the latest redesign (X-Style 4.1) was to modernize the style and make it more future prove. And if you look at the dark versions: the design looks great. But I’m not happy with the white versions.

The theme was changed to the new default Theme Twenty Seventeen coming with WordPress 4.7. In preparation for upgrading the Elevenfour server to PHP 7.x I also had to change the plugin that powers the progress bars showing on the projects pages so they look a bit different, too.
Should you experience any bugs please drop a comment, thanks. :)
Reading Time: 2 minutesA few days ago WoltLab set WoltLab Suite 3.0, the successor of WoltLab Community Framework 2.1, live on https://beta.woltlab.com and people could test the new software online. Opinions differ with regard to the design. I’m not a big fan of it, too. But I know how to change the styles and here are some impressions of what I came up with.
