Jetpack 9.2: Ready for WordPress 5.6

Jetpack 9.2 is now available. Give the latest version a try, by installing Jetpack or updating your existing installation.

In this release, we’ve focused on maintenance work to ensure that Jetpack remains compatible with the upcoming version of WordPress, version 5.6, scheduled to be released on December 8th, 2020.

WordPress 5.6 comes with a new default theme, Twenty Twenty-One. Give the new theme a try — it’s fully compatible with Jetpack!

Viewing blocks in subscription emails and RSS feeds

In the past couple of years we’ve released quite a few blocks. Those tools can help you build your business’ website, interact with your customers, and write posts. In this release, we’ve improved the Form, Payments, Slideshow, and Podcast blocks to make sure they not only look good on your site, but also in RSS feeds and subscription emails sent to your followers.

And more

We’ve also made Publicize — the tool you can use to automatically broadcast your posts across your social networks — more robust and reliable.

Update:
We’ve now released a new version of Jetpack, version 9.2.1, to address issues that were happening on sites using the WordPress.com toolbar.
