Our current child themes for the Genesis Framework, which include BlogNews, Herman, Morgan and Winfield, have all been updated.
As you may or may not know the Genesis eNews widget has been deprecated as of Genesis 1.9 and will be removed from future versions. It has been replaced by the Genesis eNews Extended plugin by Brandon Kraft. The plugin contains many feature enhancements over the old widget including the addition of several text fields. Our child themes now contain the necessary styling for these extra fields.
Using the BlogNews child theme as an example, here is how the widget appears before and after the update:

After
Additionally, the responsive sections of the style sheets were slightly adjusted.
You can get the Genesis eNews Extended plugin from the WordPress Plugin Directory. You can read further details about the plugin at Brandon’s site.
As usual you can find the demo and download links on the official theme pages.
About Len Kutchma
That was quick Len!
I’m using the Genesis eNews Extended plugin but I’ve not styled it much.
Something I need to get on with.
Love the look of your styling.
Thanks Keith!
I don’t use the plugin myself but many of the people who use my child themes do so I thought I better add the styling.
