    I've just been updating a client's site and noticed the following message in the dashboard:

    Genesis Simple Edits requires WordPress 5.0.0 and Genesis 3.1.0, or greater. Please upgrade to the latest version of Genesis to use this plugin.

    I'd just updated via the 'Wordpress Updates' page, but it neither noticed that Genesis was out of date, nor attempted to update it.

    Seems to be an isolated issue, as none of my other sites have failed to update to Version: 3.2.1, and I'm curious as to why this hasn't happened automatically, and what I should do to rectify the problem?

    On the Genesis Changelog for 3.0 Release of June 19, 2019 under "Removed", you will see that they "Removed support for all non-html5 output". As such, if you are using an XHTML theme, you will no longer receive Genesis Framework updates. Your version will remain pre-3.0.

    This was also noted in their blog of May 30, 2019 - https://studiopress.blog/genesis-3-0-beta/.

    If you haven't signed up for the newsletter, you may want to do that.

    So you will be "stuck" at the last version prior to 3.0 and there are a lot of plugins that will require Genesis 3.0 to continue working.


    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    Thanks for the reply Anita.

    Hopefully, that's the only plugin which might stop working on that particular site as the client has no interest in paying for a redesign at the moment.
