Tomorrow, on 23 Nov. 2021 starting with 07:00 EET ( 21:00 PDT/PST ) for 4 hours, we'll be performing an upgrade to the underlying control plane operators (Kubernetes) and WordPress to the latest version 5.8.2 on all production instances. During this time, the wp-admin can become inaccessible for brief periods of time while the new version is applied. The public sites will not be affected (cache freeze) and they will work normally. For any inquiries during this time don't hesitate to contact us at support@presslabs.com.

Upgrade schedule:
EU Clusters - 07:00 - 09:00 ( 21:00 - 23:00 PDT/PST )
US Clusters - 09:00 - 11:00 ( 23:00 - 01:00 PDT/PST )

We recommend you to test this new version on your development instance, as they have already been upgraded to the latest WP version. If you find any problems before the maintenance, please drop us an email at support@presslabs.com containing the Subject: "WP 5.8.2 upgrade problems"
