We’ve been keeping a close eye on the progress and rapid development of WordPress 5.0 which features a new block-based post editor nicknamed Gutenberg.
For the past several months we have been working hard to ensure WordPress 5.0 compatibility and also to offer Gutenberg support for all of our themes, starting with our Signature themes (Made and Eero) as they are the richest in terms of features and performance. Our Basic themes (Milo, Eames, Dorsey and Wright) are also in the process receiving a complete code base overhaul to optimize compatibility, performance and security.
We’re making great progress, but we’re not there yet. This means that if WordPress 5.0 is released before our next round of updates you should wait for my official announcement (check email and blog) before updating your site.
As of now, the WordPress 5.0 release date has been pushed back from it’s previous target of November 27th. The new release date is yet to be announced.
We are committed to the exciting future of WordPress, to the artists and creative professionals around the world who trust our themes to present their online portfolio, and to successfully integrating the new Gutenberg editor into the Minimal WordPress theme catalog.
