WordPress Cluster 8.6.1

  • Plugins updated
      • ESIO Server 3.8.0
        • Improvements to the “Show related content?” checkbox for posts published before this plugin existed and posts saved by automated processes such as Prestige.
        • Known issues:
          • Unticking the checkbox before saving a new draft without a title results in a ticked checkbox, as untitled drafts do not get their post meta processed by WordPress (is my conclusion).
          • Posts published through automation for ESIO Server 3.7.x might correctly indicated a ticked checkbox status in the admin but not show related content because the logic in the theme is retrieving the actual value, which does not exist. Update the post to correct this. This is a historic issue that doesn’t affect newly automated posts.
