This maintenance release improves migration reliability for multilingual posts and taxonomies, particularly on PHP 8 and sites containing incomplete or stale Polylang data.
What’s changed
- Fixed taxonomy migration for languages whose Polylang slugs differ from their WPML language codes, including Portuguese and Chinese.
- Fixed post translation groups that do not contain content in the site’s default language.
- Prevented orphaned Polylang taxonomy groups from overwriting valid category, tag, or custom-taxonomy relationships.
- Improved handling of missing or malformed Polylang options and taxonomy data.
- Prevented PHP 8 warnings and fatal errors caused by malformed widget settings or empty and unreadable
.htaccessfiles.
Thanks to @SNO7E-G for the contributions included in this release.
