New WordPress version

[Rick]

WordPress (the content management system used by the main OAS website) got a major update recently. I hope the update hasn't broken anything too horribly. Please let me know if you find things that used to work and don't any more...

[Rick]

Just gone up another major version today. You know the drill...

[Rick]

...and another major version today. If you see anything strange or broken on the main website, please let me know.

[Rick]

...and yet another main version today. If you see anything strange or broken on the main website, please let me know.

[Rick]

...and again today. If you see anything strange or broken on the main website, please let me know.

[Rick]

...and again this morning.

If you see anything strange or broken on the main website, please let me know.

[Rick]

...and again today. Quite a lot of changes (and one plugin I had to hack a fix into on the fly to keep the site alive) so please let me know pronto if you spot something amiss...

All looks OK to me.  Thanks for keeping us up to date.

I left a slightly snarky remark on that plugin's comments page because the problem was caused by an addition that was clearly driven by the marketing department, and they have to have pushed the update without testing because even a simple test would have shown the problem.

I've done a load of updates this morning. Most of them went just fine, but...

...the same problem re-surfaced in the same code, and needed the same fix this morning.

Snark levels in the maintainer's feedback are rising....
