We’ve released a new version of the Carrington Core – the engine that powers the Carrington framework. This version has a few moderate list changes, some of which are pretty interesting. In particular:
- Added support for custom post types (WordPress 3.0)
- Support for child themes (including adding templates and plugins in child themes that do not exist in the parent theme)
- Allow custom functions to be filtered into the Single and Comment template selection process (already supported in General context selection)
- home.php is now only used in is_home() situations, not is_front_page() (reverses feature requested and added in v. 2.5)
Other changes:
- Make the posts_per_page setting work as intended (only on initial query)
- Support for nesting templates inside sub-directories in misc/ and forms/
- Removed use of deprecated function `get_the_author_ID`. Replaced with 2.8 `get_the_author_meta` (since 2.8.0). Users of versions of WordPress prior to 2.8.0 should be aware this change will cause problems for them.
- Define required Carrington settings in a more forgiving way, making it easier to use just part of Carrington on a site when desired
- Make gallery settings (implemented in CSS) specific to each gallery
- Added changelog

Plugins added to the /plugins directory in child themes will now be auto-loaded after the /plugins files in the parent theme. The revision, for those inclined to review it.
Child theme support is getting broader testing and is working well from what we’ve seen. An updated release of Carrington is probably due in the near future. If you’re seeing any issues with child themes with the latest Carrington core code, please open a ticket.
