Hello everyone,

We’re excited to announce the release of Astra v4.11.8 – a user-focused update that brings greater flexibility, accessibility enhancements, and key bug fixes to ensure a seamless experience while building your website.

This release reinforces our commitment to delivering a fast, accessible, and intuitive WordPress theme that adapts to both developers and everyday users.

What’s New ?

• Custom SVG Support in Social Icons – You can now use your own SVG code in the Social Icons widget, giving you more design control and customization flexibility.

What’s Improved ?

• Accessible Off-Canvas Navigation – We’ve improved keyboard navigation for the off-canvas menu by managing focus correctly and supporting the ESC key to close the panel. This brings us closer to full WCAG 2.1 compliance and a better experience for all users.

What’s Fixed?

• WooCommerce Mini Cart Alignment – Fixed an issue where the item count in the mini cart was misaligned, ensuring cleaner layouts.
• Customizer Taxonomy SVG Display – Resolved a bug where the remove icon for taxonomy options was showing raw SVG HTML instead of the intended icon in the Customizer.
• Dropdown Target Link Behavior – Fixed an issue where clicking on the “Dropdown Target Link” option closed the menu instead of opening its submenu.
• Cart Markup Visibility in Customizer – Prevented unintended cart HTML from displaying inside the Customizer preview before the footer area.
