Current Stable Tag

👉 WooCommerce 8.8.3

After the release of WooCommerce 8.9, we received reports from users who encountered the following issues:

  • Jetpack Boost’s “Concatenate JS” feature is breaking the Cart and Checkout blocks, as well as the Mini-cart block.
  • Checkout block shows warning Warning: foreach() argument must be of type array|object, string given when a guest session is loaded after upgrading to 8.9.

As a result, we have reverted the current stable tag to WooCommerce 8.8.3.

You can read more about the uncovered issues in the Developer Advisory: Resolving Jetpack Boost and Checkout Blocks Conflicts in WC 8.9.

What’s coming in 8.9.1?

In WooCommerce 8.9.1, we will be addressing the issue related to the Checkout block PHP warnings.
