R packages bayesplot v1.15.0 and shinystan v2.7.0 are now on CRAN

bayesplot v1.15.0

  • Some issues with setting themes caused by the ggplot2 v4.0 release have been fixed
  • The website has been updated to match the new(ish) theme of the main Stan website
  • The mcmc_scatter() function now lets you control the shape of the plotted points via the shape argument.

shinystan v2.7.0

  • Some deprecated ggplot2 aesthetics have been updated
  • The as.shinystan() function is now compatible with fitted model objects created from CSV files via cmdstanr::as_cmdstan_fit()
  • The website has been updated to match the new(ish) theme of the main Stan website

Some of the changes (see Changelogs) in these packages are thanks to our Google Summer of Code contributors @behram and Visruth, who have continued contributing as well after the GSoC ended!

Thanks for fixing the as.shinystan() issue!
