I somehow "skipped" 28.x too really

00:19:36
It is definitelly harder and more confusing how to target these ElementPlus widgets via JS and/or CSS. I kinda chickened off doing anything with these.

Make it ElementLess !

removing code is improvement
lu
luci
00:25:48
I think it would not make much sense to remove it now when so much effort was made to be integrated
ga
Gary Cunningham-Lee (chibaguy)
00:26:36
Probably anything that replaces Element Plus would also have challenges to integrate.

The sitetile contrast of Tikicorp theme is not great in 28x indeed
be
Benoit Grégoire (benoitg)
00:51:37
Yes, but most of the NEW won't make it into 30 anyway or are low impact (ex: new wikiplugin)
be
Benoit Grégoire (benoitg)
00:52:48
Most of the ENH are borderline FIX

00:53:01
That looks like a great improvement Gary! 👍

After Tikiben, we will need a TikiJerry theme so we have the full Ben & Jerry's experience

00:59:46
wasn't it Tom&Jerry?

Is this Bento style something to do with the Masonry layout?

Depends if it's an ice cream inspired theme 😉 https://www.benandjerrys.ca/

There will be one last release for 28.x soon then it will go end of life.

So everyone who has something for 29.x, you have little time to finish if you want it in 29.1: https://gitlab.com/tikiwiki/tiki/-/merge_requests/?sort=created_date&state=opened&label_name%5B%5D=CherryPickDownTo%3A%3A29.x&first_page_size=100

That client has been migrated to 27.x now, so you won't see more MRs anymore
