      jQuery Updater for WordPress On Hold

      As announced in Updating jQuery shipped with WordPress to version 4.0 – Make WordPress Core, WordPress 6.8 will likely ship with jQuery 4.0
      Because of this, and the availability of the plugin Test jQuery Updates I have decided to put the development of my plugin jQuery Updater on hold as per 1 September 2024.
      This means I will no longer push updates for every stable jQuery version.

      This does not mean the plugin is dead!
      In the mean time I will work on the following items;

      • Options screen (GUI)
      • Functionality
      • Caching
      • Development

      While I migrate my dev environment.
