5.6.2 Released

Posted on December 18, 2015

This latest release fixes various bugs including a few issues which cropped up in the weeks following the the latest WordPress 4.4 release.

We have also done a large maintenance review of translations whilst migrating to the new way of translating Events Manager on translate.wordpress.org. As of now, our new text domain for translating Events Manager strings will be events-manager (previously dbem). Additionally, alongside adding various new languages and updates, we have fixed various typos throughout the plugin and updated every single language file to reflect this.

We will be updating our translation instructions over the coming days and getting in touch with current/previous translators to help make the transition to this new way of adding Events Manager in your language. Stay tuned for more in a follow-up post!
