After several weeks of testing, soliciting feedback, and troubleshooting, the WiscWeb Service has updated to WordPress Core version 5.1.1. We have also activated a plugin called Gutenberg Ramp, which removes the Gutenberg editor for the time being as we continue to work on the compatibility of the UW Theme with newer versions of WordPress Core.
In addition to the WordPress Core update and Gutenberg Ramp activation, the Gravity Forms and Events Calendar plugins have been updated to their latest versions.
If you notice anything that is not working as expected with your site following these updates, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us at cms-support@doit.wisc.edu.
For those interested, a full list of customer-reported issues (uncovered during the testing period) and their resolutions can be found on our website.
