[How to] Manually Downgrade WordPress Version - Video Included

So I was building a new website and everything was going according to plan. It wasn't until I got down to the
very end that I discovered that the new WordPress version was causing a bug with my theme. Since I have a
lot of time into this project I needed a quick solution.

You can easily downgrade your WordPress installation in just 5-7 minutes and completely fix conflicts. Some of
you may already know this but for someone who doesn't mess with the tech end much it was a life saver.


I obviously don't own that video and credit goes to the owner, but it explained everything really well and I thought I
might as well share it here just in-case someone has this very issue.

Cheers

Handy but people should also be aware that this could also be a security issue, so contact the theme creator to release an update.

True, but while you are waiting for an updated version its nice to have the website
fixed for now. Installing WordFence is a step in the right direction for security issues.

A lot of people are not running the latest versions anyway. Really WP is not that safe
unless you do some folder editing and plugin installing.
