WordPress 5.0 RC Available, Classic Editor Usable Until 2022, Gutenberg Accessibility
Hey WordPress fans, this is our last monthly news roundup of this year. In the next one, we will be changing one digit. And so is WordPress, with WordPress 5.0 almost ready to go live, after being delayed a couple of times. But at least we have a release candidate right now. In addition to this big fuss around the date when WordPress 5.0 will finally land, the Gutenberg team gets the accessibility issues fixed, the Classic Editor plugin receives support until at least the end of 2021, and WordPress.com adds an activity timeline feature. But this is only the tip of the iceberg, we have many more interesting stories to share with you today, so stick around.
And as always, we also have a bunch of nice guides and tutorials so you won’t leave our December 2018 WordPress News roundup without learning something new.
