As always, I backed up my files and database first. I have automatic updates disabled so I can do this beforehand. As I usually do, I updated the local copy on my PC before updating the blog here. My TwentyTwelve parent theme was not updated so I did not have to worry about anything affecting my child theme. So far the update seems to have gone well. ?

I’ll let you read the release notes to find out more. As always, I backed up my files and database first. I have automatic updates disabled so I can do this beforehand. As I usually do, I updated the local copy on my PC before updating the blog here. My TwentyTwelve parent theme was updated to version 4.2 . Comparing files with the previous version, I found out I did not have to worry about anything affecting my child theme. So far the update seems to have gone well. Granted, I haven’t tried much of the new stuff out yet. ? Add/View Comments (0 comment(s)) Sunday, March 31, 2024 1:27 AM: Happy Easter 2024! Happy Easter! Just wanted to wish everyone a ??
