Update to WordPress 5.7?

  • Has anyone updated to WordPress 5.7 yet?
    I know I need to do a backup first, and all my plugins are compatible, but I’m wondering if anyone with Dyad 2 has actually updated to the latest version of WP?
    If you have, how did it go? This theme has not been updated in a long time, so I’m wondering if there will be problems?

  • Hello there,

    Many thanks for reaching out.

    If you’re in doubt you can try and update the theme via this link here: https://wordpress.com/theme/dyad-2 a version updated in 2019 can be found and downloaded at the bottom of the page.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello-

    I’m not looking to update Dyad 2, I have the latest version. I’m looking for people who have updated to the latest version of WordPress, 5.7. If Dyad 2 hasn’t been updated since 2019, it’s very possible things could break with the latest WP update.

    It seems development has stopped for Dyad, do you have any suggestion for replacement?

    You are encouraged to use Dyad 2 for the most up-to-date version of the theme. Dyad 2 is indistinguishable from the original Dyad but the code is updated: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/dyad-2-a-refeshed-version-of-dyad/

    It is correct that the theme is no longer under active development however, and there is no plan for a replacement that I know of. It’s a pretty unique theme so I can’t think of an alternative that is similar I’m afraid.

    I’m still hoping to hear from someone who has updated to the latest version of WordPress, 5.7, and uses Dyad 2.
    Anyone? Anyone?
    As for other themes, I use one called Bard on one of my blogs and I like that very much. It’s frequently updated, likely because there is also a paid version (I use the free one).
    I will probably end up replacing Dyad 2 with Bard or something that is more up-to-date. I can’t risk it breaking when WordPress does an update.

    FYI, am running it on https://ccphl.net

    Cheers.

    @formerchef is Bard the closest you’ve found with regard to Dyad 2?
