      • Developers Note
        • With this release going forward, WordPress Cluster the MU (Must-Use) plugin no longer exists.  Its functionality has been broken out into a number of individual MU plugins  each with their own versioning. This should avoid further confusion between the different GitHub Release versions vs different WPC plugin versions as the later is now gone.
        • Platform Features affecting all sites are a MU plugins instead of added to the WPC MU Plugin. (eg MPP)
        • Platform Features affecting individual sites are still regular plugins. (eg DCT Hijobs)
        • Platform Theme Features that are switched on and configured by themes should be added to the Theme Features MU Plugin. (eg Cycle2 or DFP)
        • Platform Helper functions are added to the Modules MU Plugin, but don’t do anything by themselves. (eg CSV related support functions)
        • Documentation will be looked at next.
