The upgrade to MySQL 8 offers another significant performance boost when accessing saved data, as well as removal of unnecessary redundancy that can reduce the incidence of data errors.

Delete members in bulk The Manage Members grid now has a bulk delete option for when you have an abundance of test members, spam signups, or non-paying members that are important to remove. Multiple members who do not have an active subscription, or are in expired, canceled or pending cancellation status, or on a free membership level can be selected in bulk and deleted all at one time.

Bulk protect pages and posts For pages and posts, a new function has been added to the WordPress Bulk Actions menu, ‘Manage Access'.
