What about its performance regarding the non-standard permalinks and “forbidden” ones (like /%category%/%postname%/ structure)?
wpbeginner says
@danzell Its no longer forbidden… If you look in the permalinks, they are now even suggesting /%postname%/
Oren Lebovich says
Why no Short-Link button in admin-bar?
MarkStanwyck says
Is there change of breaking some of my plugins by updating?
wpbeginner says
@MarkStanwyck There is a chance… we just upgraded our site and it didn’t break.
Dev says
@wpbeginner@MarkStanwyck Yes, Both the versions of popup domination is breaking the dashboard and showing white screen.
So make sure to disable it, before upgrading to 3.3 !
