As of right now, Twenty Twenty-Two and Twenty Twenty-Three do not have any significant updates to create a package. Those will likely just update 'Tested up to' with 7.0.

For updating version strings, these 4 files have been updated, all on 20260105:

  • Twenty Fifteen customize-preview.js
  • Twenty Sixteen blocks.css
  • Twenty Sixteen editor-blocks.css
  • Twenty Sixteen customize-preview.js

As of right now, Twenty Twenty-Two and Twenty Twenty-Three do not have any significant updates to create a package. Those will likely just update 'Tested up to' with 7.0.

Right, but wouldn't it be better to still update all themes to keep their code consistent with the Core repository?

Each packaged theme update would need a changelog entry, and T22 and T23 do not give a compelling reason to update them (either manually or with auto-updates) at this time.

[60158] skipped both T23 and T24 for the 6.8 cycle, and 6.9 skipped T23 again. Earlier, #55810 reverted the version bump for Twenty Ten because it was not updated in the 6.0 cycle.

In addition to the 4 files updated on 20260105, Twenty Twelve had a minor update to editor-blocks.css on 20260324 (renaming Verse block to Poetry).

I am going to shepherd this ticket. Thank you everyone for work done so far. I know we need to wait for the confirmed dates and a patch refresh though.
