WordPress 4.3 is out

WordPress version 4.3 is out but before you update there are two really important things you should know.

TL:DR version – here’s the audio file

Here’s a short video on the changes. Nothing earth shattering but an important update none the less.


That said – I really like the better passwords. I was watching the conversation closely in slack about that.

There are two very important things that you need to know.

  1. If your site was built on Genesis and there were customizations made to those files you’ll want to update to the newest version of Genesis first, and then update to the latest version of WordPress.

WordPress and Genesis Updates

2. This is even more important – remember to ALWAYS Backup your entire site before updating.  Always.

That’s it. If you need help or have questions – just ask!

He's an avid hockey fan, rides a mountain bike, sometimes rides a road bike, has a few motorcycles (he had a really fast one, bought a cool orange one, rode a really slow one, and now,a perfect "BDR Weapon"). If that isn't enough, he makes cheese and sourdough bread, loves strong beer and good red wine, and poorly plays the Mandolin.

Who to host with?

It's the #1 question I'm asked - where to find inexpensive shared hosting. Here's who I recommend.
Data Servers are a HUGE drain on the power grid. Here's a host that sources 300% of it's power from Wind and Solar! On top of that, their service ROCKS!
Check out GreenGeeks

Need more power?

WPEngine has it!
