All themes should work fine with WordPress 5.6. No updates required.

If you are running into issues with outdated plugins, try using the jQuery Migrate Helper plugin.

(Updated 2020-08-27: Now complete. If you are experiencing issues with the update, read more below.)

I’m currently working to update all themes’ menu base, which has not been touched since 2013. The new update comes with a11y-friendly code. It also supports keyboard navigation (expanding dropdowns) and many other neat features.

The mobile menu now has nice transitions and collapsed sub-menus that can be expanded level-by-level.

The whole update takes quite a while to do for each theme, as the menus look has to be remade from the ground up, styling options needs to be remade too, and in some cases, dark mode needs additional menu styling.

All premium and free themes have been updated to the latest version of Kirki (3.1.5) which has full support for WordPress 5.5. This means that you can safely upgrade to WordPress 5.5 when it goes live later this month.

If you are having issues with your theme, first try to install the jQuery Migrate Helper plugin. If that does not fix your issue, add this to your functions.php:

add_filter('wp_lazy_loading_enabled', '__return_false');
