User blog:Rappy/Technical Update: January 8, 2013

Happy new year! We hope everyone had a safe holiday season. Now that our staff is back in the office and hard at work, we have resumed our weekly code release schedule. Keep in mind that our system updates happen every Wednesday, so we’re posting this on a Tuesday to give you advance notice. Also note that we change hundreds of tiny details every week, so these are just the highlights. Note: this update has been postponed and will be released on Thursday, January 10th.

Major Bugs Fixed

 * The transparency slider in Theme Designer was not working.
 * On Shared Help pages, section headings were displaying twice.
