After feedback and new analysis of real-world link usage using prior styling, we’ve made a slight<\/a> adjustment to our link styling for a slightly more polished look. This new iteration should assist with increased readability of longer length or line wrapping links<\/a>, as well as in sections of text<\/a> requiring multiple<\/a>, sequential links<\/a>. (Links in this paragraph are for example purposes \u2014 they intentionally don’t go anywhere.)<\/p>\n\n\n\nAdditional Palette Colors<\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe global palette has been updated to include options for gray-600 and gray-800, which automatically enables these options for all blocks currently utilizing the existing color palette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nRecommended SmashBalloon Instagram Feeds<\/h2>\n\n\n\nBasic styling support is now available for Instagram Feeds created via the [ instagram-feed ] shortcode. The styles target buttons, photo hovers, captions, and carousel pagination. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWe also have tested some pre-configured shortcode configurations that can be used as-is for quick, easy usage. While these preconfigured shortcodes are recommended, all attributes are still functional and may be tweaked.
