Coleman is in the House!
WordPress has been updated. All the WPBlogSupport clients have the newest version of WordPress 4.5 Installed on their sites.
Technical Changes include:
Smart Image Resizing
Generated images now load up to 50% faster with no noticeable quality loss. It’s really cool.
Selective Refresh
The customizer now supports a comprehensive framework for rendering parts of the preview without rewriting your PHP code in JavaScript.
Script Loader Improvements
Better support has been added for script header/footer dependencies.
Better Embed Templates
Embed templates have been split into parts and can be directly overridden by themes via the template hierarchy.
JavaScript Library Updates
jQuery 1.12.3, jQuery Migrate 1.4.0, Backbone 1.2.3, and Underscore 1.8.3 are bundled.
If the above seems like a bunch of pig latin don’t worry, the changes in this WordPress 4.5 release are build specifically to help streamline your workflow, whether you’re writing or building your site.
Over the next couple of days we’ll also be updating all your themes and plugins as WordPress Plugin and WordPress Theme authors update their software.
If your site has any issues with the new WordPress 4.5 version just open a WordPress Support ticket and we’ll fix your site.
