Let's review how you'd create a gallery using the Gallery Shortcode. In earlier versions (and the current documentation for version 4.0.3) it's a little different than it is now for WordPress 3.5. The user-interface has changed a little as noted in our previous post, "WordPress 3.5 - How it affects KingSize WP". So let's get started.

On December 11th, 2012, WordPress released Version 3.5 named for the jazz drummer "Elvin Jones". With the release of this new version, there have been some changes to the "User Interface" which many of us were not overly thrilled about as we were accustomed to the old ways. Yet with improvements, always must come change. So there are some updates we'd like to take a few minutes of your time and explain a little about as they do affect our current version of KingSize WordPress v4+. First and foremost, our template is fully compatible with the latest version of WordPress and if you're interested...

As always, we thank you for your patience while we addressed all the discovered issues/bugs. We believe we’ve addressed them all and are in hopes this will be the last bug fix released until we’ve released version 4.1 which will include many of the new features requested in recent weeks. So with that said, let’s take a few minutes to review the many changes and fixes released in version 4.0.3.

We realize it's only be a week since rolling out Version 4.0 and this update now makes two since, but as said before, when rolling out an update as large as we have, bugs are to be expected. In version 4.0.1, we addressed some of the major ones and released an update immediately. In this latest version of 4.0.2, we have corrected all the additional bugs/issues mentioned since.

We want to first thank you all for your patience while we corrected these and more importantly, thank you for your help in identifying the issues. We’re very sorry about the mishaps but as we’ve mentioned before, in an update as large as this one, it was bound to happen but we’ll get everyone sorted out and we’re constantly looking to continuously update KingSize more regularly. So now that it's been said, let's discuss version 4.0.1!

It's finally here! The very anticipated and overdue update! Version 4.0 is now available for Download on Theme Forest.

Updates can be as easy or hard as you want to make it. We say that because there are a variety of ways a person can update the version of there template and if you follow these instructions, we'll try and make it as painless and as successful as possible.

There are quite a few shortcodes available in KingSize WordPress. Most of which can be seen on this demo "Shortcodes" page. Shortcodes are designed to make adding certain options and features a little less difficult and time consuming sifting through code.

Using Sliders can now be used on all and any pages/posts. In previous versions of KingSize WordPress, this was restricted to only the homepage - hooray for updates! To learn more about Homepage Background usage, checkout our Tutorial on "Background Sliders and Background Videos" for the purpose of homepage usage. In this tutorial though, we will be specifically discussing how you create the Slider Items and how they can be used throughout the website.

In the release of version 4, we have introduced not only the Video Background capabilities, but a new and improved Background Slider script using the ever popular Supersized. With previous versions of KingSize WordPress, we had a Theme Option where you would upload your Backgrounds and sort them there. In the release of version 4, we have created a new post-type that is specific to the Slider. It is here you will now create, manage and organize your slider images and jammed with a lot of new options and features for your usage.
