WordPress 5.0 Beta 4 is now available!

This software is still in development, so we don’t recommend you run it on a production site. Consider setting up a test site to play with the new version.

There are two ways to test the WordPress 5.0 Beta: try the WordPress Beta Tester plugin (you’ll want “bleeding edge nightlies”), or you can download the beta here (zip).

The WordPress 5.0 release date has changed, it is now scheduled for release on November 27, and we need your help to get there. Here are some of the big issues that we’ve fixed since Beta 3:

Block Editor

The block editor has been updated to match the Gutenberg 4.3 release, the major changes include:

An Annotations API, allowing plugins to add contextual data as you write.
More consistent keyboard navigation between blocks, as well as back-and-forth between different areas of the interface.
Improved accessibility, with additional labelling and speech announcements.

Additionally, there have been some bugs fixed that popped up in beta 3:

Better support for plugins that have more advanced meta box usage.
Script concatenation is now supported.
Ajax calls could occasionally cause PHP errors.

Internationalisation

We’ve added an API for translating your plugin and theme strings in JavaScript files! The block editor is now using this, and you can start using it, too. Check out the developer note to get started.

Twenty Nineteen

Twenty Nineteen is being polished over on its GitHub repository. This update includes a host of tweaks and bug fixes, including:

Menus now properly support keyboard and touch interactions.
A footer menu has been added for secondary page links.
Improved backwards compatibility with older versions of WordPress.

Default Themes

All of the older default themes—from Twenty Ten through to Twenty Seventeen—have polished styling in the block editor.
