@romik84 —
So you actually didn’t report any issue yet?
Right.
I am asking for instructions on what to do to avoid problems.
I can see that there are other brave people who are quite willing to do an upgrade that makes a total mess of their site, and then spend as many hours as they need in order to clean up the mess. But I prefer not to have a mess in the first place. So if I will need to make modifications to my child theme’s functions.php file, I thought it would help to know in advance.
If you think the file should work as is, that’s fine, too — all you have to do is say so.
I can see from other posts that you are still working on some other problems with the new code, so I won’t be upgrading to v3.9 in any event. I’ll wait until the other kinks are worked out.
Perhaps you might consider putting up a webpage with instructions as to some steps for anyone upgrading from version 2.8x to 3.9x to follow, particularly if using child themes. It probably will help if you let people know more clearly about the removal of contact form functionality as well (so one step before upgrade for many people would be to revise their contact page).
