The second release candidate for WordPress 4.5 is now available.<\/p>\n

We’ve made 91 changes<\/a> since the first release candidate. RC means we think we\u2019re done, but with millions of users and thousands of plugins and themes, it\u2019s possible we\u2019ve missed something. We hope to ship WordPress 4.5 on Tuesday, April\u00a012<\/strong>, but we need your help to get there.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t tested 4.5 yet, now is the time!<\/p>\n

Think you’ve found a bug?<\/strong> Please post to the Alpha\/Beta support forum<\/a>. If any known issues come up, you’ll be able to find them here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To test WordPress 4.5, you can use the WordPress Beta Tester<\/a> plugin or you can download the release candidate here<\/a> (zip).<\/p>\n

For more information about what\u2019s new in version 4.5, check out the\u00a0Beta 1<\/a>,\u00a0Beta 2<\/a>, Beta 3<\/a>, and Beta 4<\/a>\u00a0blog posts.<\/p>\n

Developers<\/strong>, please test your plugins and themes against WordPress 4.5 and update your plugin’s Tested up to<\/em> version in the readme to 4.5. If you find compatibility problems, we never want to break things, so please be sure to post to the support forums so we can figure those out before the final release.<\/p>\n

Polyglots<\/strong>, strings are now hard frozen, including the About Page, so you are clear to translate!<\/p>\n
