Just updated my blog to WordPress v7.0 ( known as “Armstrong” ) which contains various feature updates/additions and performance improvements. I’ll let you read the WordPress 7.0 Field Guide to find out more as the release documentation doesn’t say that much currently. As always, I backed up my files and database first. I have automatic updates disabled so I can do this beforehand. As I usually do, I updated the local copy on my PC before updating the blog here.

My TwentyTwelve parent theme was updated to version 4.8 ( changelog ). Comparing files with the previous version, I found out that I did not need to change any of the files in my child theme. Other than the highlight function in the editor acting odd, the theme update seems to have gone well. 🙂
