This notice relates to the following platforms: WordPress.com VIP
Today we rolled out the latest version of the AMP plugin (v0.5.1) across the WordPress.com platform, including VIP sites.
It’s just almost two years since the AMP project was first announced and publishers on the VIP platform continue to lead in innovative content publishing using the format (we’ll have more on this soon on VIP News).
Version 0.5.1 of the plugin is fully compatible with the previous release (0.4.2) and should not have any impact on custom markup. Among the highlights of the update are:
- More spec-compliant markup using a whitelist sanitizer.
- Faster rendering for posts with lots of images.
- New embed handlers for Vimeo, SoundCloud and Pinterest
- and a number of bug fixes.
Special thanks to the many community contributions we received for this update, including from Featured Partners like Alley Interactive and our friends at Google.
As always, if you encounter any issues or need any help, please get in touch.
