Download Simplish version 2.6 here (.zip, sha1:26adde6a95e32fea784ecf56f556ca5d68090b95), update it in your admin panel, or get it from the WordPress themes directory.

Version 2.5.2 has all the fixes and features noted in the posts for 2.4.1 and 2.5.1, and adds an updated Greek localization courtesy of Demetris, and a couple fixes for ol and ul list layouts, ensuring that numbered lists are, in fact, displayed with numbers and that all lists have enough bottom margin to prevent crowding the element below them.

Download Simplish version 2.5.2 here (.zip, sha1:38732623e9e0f405157f8758baf38a1a2cd2ca86), or get it now in the WordPress themes directory.

Neither of  the 2.4.1 or 2.5 versions were officially released in the Themes Directory, so for many users, 2.5.1 rolls up several months of changes, fixes, and enhancements.

Highlights:

Download Simplish version 2.5.1 here (.zip, sha1:44ea012de16b4a50a3ba1fb67efd74136390b7b9), or see it soon in the WordPress themes directory.

First and foremost: This release is not compatible with earlier versions of WordPress. Use it only with WP3.0 and up.

Only minor refinements are apparent to the eye: You won’t see the word “Trackback” in the comments area anymore, and the former “Pages” list in the default sidebar is now labeled “Navigation” to accommodate the optional custom menu. Just beneath the surface, the theme now outputs HTML5 where once there was XHTML 1.0.

Highlighted Changes

• HTML5 output
• Support new custom menus
• New CSS reset
• Suppress the inline gallery style — remove a validation stumbling block
• CSS updates for gallery styling, efficiency
• Use automatic feed links for uniform & dynamic header metadata
• Rewrite and modernize functions.php — better child theme override support
• Replace/remove deprecated WordPress function calls

On a display, there is only a single visible change in this release, but the numerous changes to the theme’s CSS will affect customizers or child-themers and therefore prompt a minor version bump over the venerable 2.1[.x] series. Print styles, on the other hand, have changed both in code and in visual presentation.

In honor of translators’ contributions since version 2.1.17, the Simplish Demo is rotating through the supported localizations.

Highlighted Changes

• Add fr_FR localization for French, thanks to ttynixer.
• Add pt_PT localization for Portuguese, thanks to ttynixer.
• Optimize CSS according to Google Page Speed analysis.
• Rewrite CSS for simplicity and efficiency. Reduce over-specification.
• Trim dead selectors/rules. Merge some sharable selectors/rules.
• Add new archives-list CSS class for common multiple-post listing styles.
• Add underline on hover to author name in post byline.
• More precisely define font, color, layout rules for printed output.

If there are other corners we could tidy, let us know with a comment here – that includes providing specific examples for the reported issue with some AJAX sidebar widgets and Simplish v2.1.2, as well as the question about the importance of threaded comment support -vs- the simplicity of loading no JavaScript.
