  • Ticket #61704 – Description

    v1 v3  
    55It requires a PHP backport, hence the trac ticket.

    7 ## Testing Instructions
     7== What?
     8In WordPress 6.6, there was a general effort to lower and level specificity, but a couple of selectors seem to have mistakenly had their specificity raised.

    9 ### Frontend styles
     10The styles associated with the `body` are an example. In 6.5 these styles used the simple `body` selector. In 6.6 the selector is `:root :where(body)`, an increase in specificity.
     11
     12== Why?
     13These changes may cause some problems for themes, especially the typography styles in the body, which will cascade.
