Enjoy it and keep being awesome ?

Hey,

This minor update will fix filter button behaviour on mobiles.

Hey,

Here’s a new update for Lens.

It comes with a few bug fixes and improvements:

• When comments were enabled for a project, the post navigation layout was broken. This is not the case anymore.
• The filter button was not working on desktops. We’ve fixed that.
• Sometimes when navigating through pages on mobile, some of them were blank. This has been fixed too.

Lens was tested and is compatible with WordPress 5.6 and WooCommerce 4.8.0.

Stay safe ?

Hey,

We know how important an e-commerce store is for you. This time we focused on the shop section and the most fixes are related to WooCommerce:

• In the Customizer,  under the WooCommerce Settings, there's a specific option that allows you to choose the number of products per row. It didn't work as it should, so we fixed it. 
• Now you can sell products with variables. 
• WooCommerce version 4.3.1 was tested and we confirm everything works perfectly. 
  
  

Other than that, the social media icons are now correctly displayed, and also the theme was tested with WordPress 5.4.2. 

Enjoy the improvements and stay safe!

Hey, 

You asked we listened. ?

• “Return to shop” button is displayed now correctly after emptying the cart.
• WooCommerce 3.8.0 templates are updated.
• The navigation through the Gallery images using the keyboard arrows works now on Windows, too. 

Because you deserve it. ?

Cheers! 

Happy 2020! ?

I don't know how it was last year for you, but I have a feeling this year will be a great one. We've just started with an update for your Lens theme, where we fixed some scrolling and displaying issues on Windows and a small problem with the logo on mobile, so everything works perfectly now. 

Also, the theme was tested on the latest version of WordPress 5.3.x

Your site is ready for new amazing photos, so prepare for new photo shooting sessions. ?
