What's Changed

Fixed

  • Block stylesheets were never cache-busted by a plugin release. Core's register_block_style_handle() reads $metadata['version'] from block.json and falls back to false, which makes wp_register_style() stamp the WordPress version onto the URL. Every one of this plugin's block.json-registered handles was therefore versioned by core, not by the plugin: on this site url-preview.min.css shipped as ?ver=7.1 for WordPress 7.1, and the files are served public, max-age=31536000. The query string is the only thing that can retire a year-long cached copy, so a CSS fix in a plugin release stayed invisible to every reader who had already loaded the page until WordPress itself updated. The 2.11.2 contrast fix was landing this way — correct on disk and at the CDN, still broken in the browser of anyone who had visited before.

    A block_type_metadata filter now sets version to ACF_BLOCKS_VERSION for blocks whose block.json lives inside this plugin, matching what the plugin's direct wp_enqueue_style() calls have always passed. Blocks that other plugins register under the acf/ namespace are left alone. Asset URLs now carry the plugin version and change with every release.

    Sites running GT Performance saw this compounded: its assetVersion filter rewrites ver when it equals the core version, turning ?ver=7.1 into a stable hash. It was doing its job — hiding the core version — but the versioning underneath was already wrong, and the hash made the staleness harder to spot.
