WordPress has released new updates, including important features for website owners. Let\u2019s explore what\u2019s new in WordPress version 5.2.3.<\/p>\n

\"about_error-protection\"<\/p>\n

1. PHP Error Protection<\/h2>\n

Firstly, This administrator-focused update will let you safely fix or manage fatal errors without requiring a developer. It features better handling of the so-called \u201cwhite screen of death\u201d and a way to enter recovery mode, which pauses error-causing plugins or themes.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

2. Accessibility Updates<\/h2>\n

Moreover, Several changes work together to improve contextual awareness and keyboard navigation flow for those using screen readers and other assistive technologies.<\/p>\n

3. New Dashboard Icons<\/h2>\n

For example, Thirteen new icons include Instagram, a suite of icons for BuddyPress, and rotated Earth icons for global inclusion. Find them in the Dashboard and have some fun!<\/p>\n

4. PHP Version Bump<\/h2>\n

Firstly, The minimum supported PHP version is now 5.6.20. Consequently, As of WordPress 5.2, themes and plugins can safely take advantage of namespaces, anonymous functions, and more!<\/p>\n

5. Privacy Updates<\/h2>\n

Furthermore, A new theme page template, a conditional function, and two CSS classes make designing and customizing the Privacy Policy page easier.<\/p>\n

6. New Body Tag Hook<\/h2>\n

Additionally, 5.2 introduces a wp_body_open<\/em><\/strong> hook, which lets themes support injecting code right at the beginning of the body<\/em> <\/strong> tag element.<\/p>\n

7. Building JavaScript<\/h2>\n

Moreover, with the addition of webpack and Babel configurations in the @wordpress\/scripts package, developers won\u2019t have to worry about setting up complex build tools to write modern JavaScript.<\/p>\n

Make your website up to date with latest WordPress5.2.3 version<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
