10.2.9

Summer is here, and it's time to get animated!

Hello My Baby, Hello My Lottie

Ready to add elegant animations to your WordPress website with a powerful (and easy to use) new Element? Say hello to the brand new Lottie Element! Here are the highlights.

You can render as an SVG, Canvas, or even HTML.
Control animation state by Element visibility, hover, scroll, and click actions.
Load the animation through AJAX (a link) or place the JSON directly onto the page for mission-critical animations.

Ready to get started? Check out Lottie & Friends over at the playground for just a taste of what this Element can do. Then, be sure to check out the new Lottie Docs for everything you need to know about how to use the Element.

Revamped: Accordions & Tabs

Looking to take Accordions and Tabs to the next level? They both now have a new child type that allows for nesting Cornerstone Elements! This means you can use the Elements you know and love to build even more engaging content with these heavy-hitter Elements.

But that's not all. In addition to nesting Elements, we are also excited to introduce Looper support as well! Check out the Lottie & Friends post referenced above for some real-world examples of what you can do. Cheers to no limitations.

WordPress 6.2 Notes

WordPress 6.2 introduced a change that required an update to X and Pro. We released the patch in X 10.1.10 and Pro 6.1.10. If you haven't updated to WP 6.2, make sure you are on those versions or later before updating.

This was a very narrow issue with an older media file type, and we confirmed the fix with many different customers across many different versions. If you are still experiencing an issue after updating, it is due to something else.

If you are on WP 6.2 and having an issue, please make sure and to follow these steps. If you are trying to make the fix manually, there are different steps to take given the code changes between different versions. We have also included step-by-step FTP instructions.

FAQ

When is the release to automatic updates?

Our product releases are done in phases. You can download the latest version from your dashboard page. The downloads can be used for manually updating or setting up a new install. Automatic updates will be available some time after the initial release. This process helps us provide better support and catch potential lingering issues that were not uncovered in beta testing. You can find instructions to manually update in this docs article.

What should I do if I get a fatal PHP error after updating?

If you are using X and have updated Cornerstone first you will need to update X as well. If you have access to the server files, try enabling WP_DEBUG in wp-config.php as this will reveal more details about the error message. Check the Status section below to see if your error is a known issue for this release. If it is not listed, please open a new support ticket with your exact error message and we can investigate.

Why am I missing text, images, etc. after updating?

Does this release support PHP 8?
