The 1.33.0 update is now available for the WordPress (composer managed) upstream. This update fixes two bugs and alters the way REST API permalinks are handled on newly-created sites.
Bug fixes
- Fixes a bug where a script was added to the
composer.jsonfile that did not exist due to a typo in the script name. This caused a failure when runningcomposer installorcomposer update. (For more information see #183.) - Fixes an issue where REST API URLs were broken before "pretty permalinks" were enabled. This was due to URL rewriting fixes for the Bedrock-based WordPress architecture (using the
/wp/directory). The fix ensures that "pretty permalinks" are natively supported even before explicitly enabled, while also still supporting "plain" REST API URLs. (For more information see #186.)
For more details, refer to the WordPress (Composer Managed) changelog.
Action required
To benefit from these updates and ensure your site is using the most current version, apply the update to your WordPress (composer managed) site or custom upstream.
Troubleshooting
If you notice an error when running composer install or composer update, please check your composer.json file for the maybe-add-symlinks script and rename it to maybe-create-symlinks.
