This update has been published in our API on April 13, and is approved by ThemeForest for those who desire to obtain the full theme package from their Envato account. You can now use your theme update settings to update to Striking MultiFlex Ver 1.2.8 anytime!

Attached to this comment are screenshots showing the update process stages step by step. Also attached to the Changelog comment are screenshots of a new shortcode, and some new fotorama caption position and color settings which we are certain will be welcomed by all using this fast wonderful slider.

All questions about updating, and any queries about possible bugs in these releases should be posted below, not in the general forum! This way we all only has to review this thread in order to find pertinent information related to this release. The release and the updating function have been tested (images attached) and the Striking Demo site is using WP 4.5 and MultiFlex Ver 1.2.8.

To see the changelog for WordPress please visit the following link:

WordPress 4.5 Release Notes

This is mainly a maintenance focused theme release as there are quite a number of script updates and code tweaks. But a new very welcome feature is a new shortcode called “ServerInfo” which you can stick in any page/post, and then just preview the page and it will show you your hosting variables. You don’t even need to save the page, and after you are finished previewing, you can just delete the shortcode string – how easy is that!

The Changelog file below will detail any other little tidbits, and as always, we invite you to go review the list of changed files and the details of each in our api – did you know that no other premium wp theme developer has such a visual system enabling you to view and compare the changes from one build to the next such as we have?

This thread may see further updates so please check back occasionally. THIS RELEASE HAS SUGGESTIONS TO FOLLOW PRIOR TO UPDATING, ESPECIALLY RELEVANT TO WEBSITES WHICH EMPLOY THE REVOLUTION SLIDER, AND IF YOU CURRENTLY HAVE THEME VERSION 1.2.2 OR OLDER and we ask that you review all our instructions and notes below prior to commencing the update.

Some users will encounter errors when attempting to update, which are due to hosting factors. One of the sections below details examples of the errors, and how to resolve. Step 1: Click on the following link and Do Not Panic………

I am ready to panic as the internal update failed – what do I do?

Finally, a note for the obstinate out there: should you find what you believe is a potential bug, or a compatibility with a common plugin, it is not the end of the world! Post your potential finding below along with links, and screenshots if possible, we will verify, and usually post a fix or provide a replacement file for you to download and install.

Striking MultiFlex is historically compatible with thousands of plugins, and we guarantee that we will fix compatibility issues for a select group of the most popular plugins such as WP SEO, WPML, PolyLang, Woo, Easy Digital Downloads, bbpress, buddypress, WP Symposium, Post Types Order and several more.  But be advised support for other plugins will often fall into paid support. If the plugin is not listed as WP 4.4.1 compatible, we will not even consider examining the matter.

Please note we have removed our formal support for WP Ecommerce. The plugin developers seem to have gone in a diff direction with how they are coding their plugin, and we do not feel we can maintain compatibility without more work then we are prepared to undertake, given that to the best of our knowledge our entire customer base uses either Woo or Easy Digital Downloads, Easy Paypal or other such plugins for ecommerce.

This release, like all in the past, benefits from the comments and suggestions of our user base and we thank you all in advance.

Best Regards
On behalf all the Striking Team
