Blog Updated to WordPress v6.8.1

Just updated my blog to WordPress v6.8.1 which is a maintenance release that corrects 15 bugs introduced in version 6.8 within the Core and Block Editor. 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 not updated so I did not have to worry about anything affecting my child theme. So far the update seems to have gone well. 🙂

Blog Updated to WordPress v6.8

Just updated my blog to WordPress v6.8 ( known as “Cecil” ) which contains various feature updates/additions and performance improvements. I’ll let you read the WordPress 6.8 Field Guide to find out more as the release notes don’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 4.5. Comparing files with the previous version, I found out that only the header.php of my child theme needed just a couple lines adjusted. So far the update seems to have gone well. Granted, I haven’t tried much of the new stuff out yet. 🙂
