Can I safely update to wordpress 7.0? staging looks broken

Hello @GreenLion,

We have conducted tests on our local website using the latest version of WordPress, and everything is functioning correctly. It appears that the issues you are experiencing may be related to compatibility between the active plugins on your website and the current WordPress version.

Please provide us with temporary wp-admin and FTP access for your staging web-site in the private content section so that we can review the logs and identify the source of the issues.

Best regards,

Hello @GreenLion,

We are pleased to hear that most things are functioning normally now. Regarding the outdated files, please note that the WooCommerce plugin was updated only about 20 hours ago (https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/). We are already working on implementation the compatibility in our next theme update, which will be released within the next few days (1–2 days). More information: https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/theme-installation/theme-update/

The outdated files do not affect your website’s functionality, as the changes in those files are minor and involve only slight modifications to certain strings or data attributes in some tags.

Best regards,

Hello @GreenLion,

Please wait for the official update, as we are currently working on it. Implementing minor changes on the customer’s website is not possible at this stage, since the modifications affect multiple files and must be applied simultaneously. Thanks for your understanding and respecting our support policy.

Best regards,

Hello, GreenLion,

We have released the official update on May 27. Please update the theme on the staging site before deploying it to the live site.

Best regards,
The 8Theme Team
