@arnaudbroes As in version 4.0.13 or 4.0.14? Seen the changelog up for 4.0.13 but it’s not in my updates on WordPress yet

I can confirm that my position for specific search terms collapsed following the Jan 6th update. Google are now crawling my website every 2 days, if that. And before, they were crawling on average twice a day. What is going on? What did you delete/change in 4.0.12 that would cause certain terms not to perform as well, and stop regular crawling?

Same problem here. It auto updated to 4.0.10, and then broke the sitemap, with all sitemap links redirecting to the posts/news page on the site. Rolled back to 4.0.9 but now have to keep going back to check if it hasn’t auto-updated again (despite auto updates turned off)

I would recommend installing version 4.7, as my site had experienced speed issues since 4.6, but it’s completely fine again after 4.7! Was literally about to use the revert plugin when the update came out. Otherwise use a revert tool, and go back to 3.9 or earlier until they properly work these patches out.

But note to these devs, you might’ve fixed my one issue but clearly plenty of others don’t like the new UI, how forced the premium features are, etc. Simplicity is key. Don’t ruin a good thing, please.
