The Sandbox is dead; long live the Sandbox.

After receiving a number of emails, I’d like to answer a question. Yes, the Sandbox is no longer being developed. And that’s just fine. Let me explain.

Vulnerability in Sandbox fixed

Thanks to WordPress user anoncobard, a cross-site scripting vulnerability in prior Sandbox versions has been fixed. I ask all Sandbox users to download Sandbox 1.6.1 and upgrade.

Post-release theme fixes

New theme releases with working gallery shortcode for WordPress 2.5. This update also includes a new theme file, image.php, which means these themes are really excellent tools for those with photo-rich blogs.

Trunk users beware

Keeping up with WordPress releases has become something of a labor—not of love, but necessity. Yet the Sandbox continues to improve with each release. As WordPress 2.5 rolls out, so do a number of new features for your favorite untheme.

Sandbox now in your language

Sandbox now features several localizations, including Chinese, Japanese, Italian, and Norwegian. I’d like to add more languages, so I’m hoping there are some international users out there willing to help translate. Please.
