WordPress 6.6

WordPress 6.6 was recently released, and as always, we’ve updated our WordPress one-click installer to automatically install the latest version for new WordPress sites. WordPress 6.6 works fine on our servers (make sure you’re using a recent version of PHP for your site).

If you’ve previously installed an older version of WordPress, you should update it from within your WordPress Dashboard.

A nice new feature of WordPress 6.6 is that it if you’ve enabled automatic plugin updates (which you should, for security reasons), it will do extra checks after each automatic update to ensure your site still works — and if it doesn’t, it will automatically undo the update to get your site working again. This gives you even more confidence that turning on automatic updates is a good idea: it keeps your site secure, and it gives you one less thing to worry about doing yourself manually. We enable automatic updates on all our own WordPress sites, and we think that everyone else should, too.
