 * If this were true — “WPMU DEV is committed to always providing the best plugins
   and experience for you” — you would answer the question that’s been asked here
   multiple times — can you tell us how long the old version of the plugin will 
   be kept around? I have yet to hear an answer.

 * I won’t go over the issues everyone else has been reporting. But thank you for
   the information, I think, that eventually V1 will be sunset. Oh, by the way, 
   your company’s policy of _not allowing us to delete our newly created accounts_
   is not a good look.

 * Glad you can still use the old version… but how long will you keep it around?

   and [@rossfraser2020](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rossfraser2020/) … 
   I was on an impromptu overnight without my computer so wasn’t able to check this
   thread earlier.

 * Thanks! As it turns out, you weren’t way off at all — disabling your lazy loader(
   which I was using) fixed the issue.
 * Thanks for the quick help!

 * Thanks [@jameskoster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jameskoster/). Any 
   thoughts as to the longevity of themes like [Seedlet (Blocks)](https://wordpress.org/themes/seedlet-blocks/)
   and [Blockbase](https://wordpress.org/themes/blockbase/)? The [Blockbase site](https://blockbasetheme.com/)
   seems to indicate it’s transitional… which sounds great for someone like me _unless_
   it’s going to be dropped more quickly than not.

 * Of course, one might say that as the Site Editor _does_ continue to improve it
   might not be that much of a pain to convert from a universal to a block theme.
 * Any thoughts from you or anyone else reading would be most welcome.

 * I was wondering this myself. I just ended up creating a clone of writesofway.
   org at test.writesofway.org, installing the new theme there, and trying things
   out.

    I added js/jquery/ui to the
   exclusion list and the error message is now gone. Thank you for your help!!

 * Thanks! The unicode values for the punctuation are U+2018 ; U+2019 ; U+201C ;
   U+201D
 * And actually, now that I look at it, you already have a bunch of fractions in
   the system — [https://imgur.com/a/noXsHvl](https://imgur.com/a/noXsHvl) — I think
   the most useful additions would probably be ⅐, ⅑, and ⅒, or U+2150 ; U+2151 ;
   and U+2152.
 * Thank you!!
