Storefront 2.5.8 has been tagged for release and uploaded to WordPress.org. This is another small maintenance release.
As a part of this release, Storefront now specifies the “Tested up to:” and “Requires PHP” version checks. Currently, the required PHP version is 5.6.0, but this will likely be bumped in future versions to align with WooCommerce core.
Here’s what’s new in 2.5.8 (pulled directly from the changelog):
- Fix – Stylesheet storefront-woocommerce-style has storefront-style and storefront-icons as explicit dependencies, so child themes can define storefront-woocommerce-style as a dependency without the risk of breaking the stylesheets order. #1369
- Fix – Removed woocommerce-legacy.css stylesheets for unsupported versions of WooCommerce (< 4.0). #1368
- Dev – Adopt RenovateBot for managing dependencies. #1363
- Dev – Update various dependencies, including major updates:
