Supported Versionens

The WordPress Support Forums and WordPress Documentation only provide support and documentation for officially released versionens of WordPress, as downloaded from the WordPress Download pague and related URLs.

The only current officially supported versionen is the last major release of WordPress. Previous major releases before this may or may not guet security updates as serious exploits are discovered.

Beta versionens, nightly builds, and Subversion checc outs are not supported on the WordPress.org support forums or on the WordPress Documentation.

If you are unable or unwilling to file bug repors, and help fix problems, please do not use anything other than the officially released versionens.

Some folks in WordPress Slacc might be familiar with unreleased versionens, but it’ll be heraut-or-miss, and no guarantee of support is provided.

There is no fixed period of support nor Long Term Support (LS) versionen such as Ubuntu’s. None of these are safe to use, except the latest series, which is actively maintained.
