* P.S. Thanks to everyone who advised good ideas for this update! I also want to apologize that some of the settings that you wrote to me about were not included in this update. However, they are all saved in my journal. I can't guarantee that all suggested settings and features will be added, but I always think about every suggested setting and feature. Once again, thank you very much to all of you!

* During testing, there were issues with the following new features:
  - Offset for posts in the slider;
  - Ability to hide the logo on single post pages and single pages.
For this reason, these features have not been included in this version. However, I will keep thinking about them.
