# WordPress 5.5 – JQuery.live()

 * It looks like WordPress 5.5 made some changes to jQuery migrate and some functions,
   specifically `jQuery.live()`, is no longer accessible via admin. It’s throwing
   a JS error in the console and preventing me to run certain JS actions like selecting
   all posts or viewing the admin sidebar submenus.
