  • Today we’re excited to release WooCommerce 3.4 into the wild! 3.4 has been in development since January, and has had over 2140 commits from 80 contributors.

    3.4 is a “minor” release; this version should be backwards compatible with sites running versions of WooCommerce greater than 3.0. We do of course recommend ensuring your extensions and themes are compatible before upgrading, and making backups for peace of mind–see this handy guide for more details.

    (more…)

  • WooCommerce 3.4.0 RC2 is available for testing. We’ve fixed the following issues specific to 3.4 functionality:

    • Incorrectly closed table row in WP Admin. #20091

    • When cleaning up CSV import, only remove product taxonomies. #20094
