7월 7일 워드프레스의 젯팩 플러그인 9.9 업데이트가 배포되었습니다.
6월 1일에 9.8 버전이 배포되었으니 역시나 한 달만에 업데이트가 나왔습니다.
한달 간격으로 업데이트가 배포가 되고 있는 만큼 매월 초에는 확인을 하는게 좋을 듯 합니다.

젯팩 플러그인 9.9 업데이트 내용의 특징은 7월에 배포가 예상되는 워드프레스 5.8 업데이트에 대한 호환성을 미리 확보했다는 점입니다.
그리고 또 하나 눈에 들어오는 점은 바로 캐러셀에 대한 개선에 중점을 둔 점입니다.
만약 캐러셀 기능이 필요하면 별도의 플러그인을 설치하지 않고 젯팩 플러그인을 한번 이용해 보는 것도 좋을 듯 합니다.
젯팩 플러그인, 워드프레스 블로그 SEO & 애드센스 설정 전자책에서는 워드프레스 앱, 통계 그리고 SNS 자동 포스팅 기능 정도로만 활용을 하고 있습니다만 이렇게 계속 기능들이 보완되어 간다면 추가적인 활용도 고려해 봐도 좋을 듯 합니다.
