UPGRADE NOTICE:
This Ajax Load More update may introduce breaking changes for core plugin CSS styling and add-on functionality.

Major changes in this release includes the removal of the transition_container parameter which affects the rendered HTML of the plugin by removing the .alm-reveal div used to display the Ajax loaded content.
If you are using the Filters, SEO, or Paging add-ons please be sure to update these add-ons after updating the core Ajax Load More plugin.
