As you may already have seen, there is an update available today to the core WordPress code, version 5.2
The main improvements are around configuration error protection and accessibility.
We will be installing this update on all sites with a current maintenance package later today, which will mean sites are unavailable for two minutes as the update runs. If you do not have a WordPress maintenance service with us, then you should undertake this update yourself in the next few days.
We have also today been notified of a new vulnerability in the W3 Total Cache plugin. If you are using this, please update it urgently (no one on a managed plan has this, but of course if they did it would already be patched).
In other news…
