WordPress 4.2

Resolved 3 replies generalpremium

Hi,

If somebody haven’t seen this yet, there is a major change coming in WordPress 4.2, which could break some plugins (and potentially even some themes).

If your plugin (or theme) independently stores taxonomy term IDs in the database (eg in the postmeta, usermeta, options tables or a custom table), then you will need to make changes.

You can read about it here: Taxonomy term splitting in 4.2: a developer guide

Will this changes affect Site Origin: plugins & vantage theme ?

Thanx

    Hi Nikibilejn

    We’re currently doing extensive tests with version 4.2 and have yet to encounter any major issues. All the issues are fairly minor and we’re planning on having them fixed by the time version 4.2 is released. We currently don’t have any known 4.2 issues in Vantage.

    As for that taxonomy change – luckily none of our themes or plugins interact directly with the taxonomy table, so we’re not directly affected by this.

    Hope that puts your mind at ease :)

    Every new launch of WordPress comes packed with new features that improves experience for new users and also provides new improved WordPress functions for the developers.

    With the new Emoji support blogging will become more fun than ever and with instant plugin updates, the maintenance will be much faster and the theme changing in Customizer would mean that making the decision of changing theme would be quicker.

    For the developers, HTML5 support for widgets has improved, working with Taxonomies will be less of a work, there is much more content. Here is details: http://www.cloudways.com/blog/whats-new-in-wordpress-4-2/
