First, we've rearranged the Roller user-interface and moved the theme-chooser and template editing pages to their own tab. As you can see below, we now have a design tab that includes all theme/template functionality and we've improved the theme chooser to better explain shared and custom themes.

Style-sheet overrides ROL-1368 To make it easy for folks to change theme colors and fonts, we've introduce the notion of a style-sheet override for each theme. Roller themes can now include a style-sheet override file and if you want to set your own colors and fonts, that's the place to add and change CSS. The proposal for this new feature is here Proposal Stylesheet Overrides for Weblogs and the corresponding issue is here ROL-1368.

About this blog message and blog image ROL-1366 Most blogs include a short "about this blog" message and an image, which is either a mugshot of the author or the icon/logo of the blog. So we've added new fields to the weblog settings page so you can set these for your blog and now Roller themes can include these fields in a standard way. You won't be able to take advantage of this feature unless you are using a theme that has been updated for Roller 4.0.

Here's the issue we're using to track this new feature: ROL-1366 Ease of weblog customization: custom bio blurp & thumbnail entryTBD: screenshot of weblog settings page with new fields

Templates by action If you want to use a different layout or design on your weblog's permalink, tags or search page you can now specify which template is to be used in each case. When you add a new page now, you can specify the action that it is associated with and you have three four: permalink, tags-index, search and custom.

• Proposal Individual Templates By Action Support a way to define individual or separate template files for various weblog page actions
• ROL-1310 Individual templates by action (feeds, tags, archive, etc.)
