Greetings WordPress Admins, Editors, and Authors:
This post is intended for site owners currently using the Coraline WordPress theme. The Coraline theme code is one of the oldest theme installations available to WordPress community and it is being retired by the WordPress development group Automatic. Since Coraline is retiring and has not been updated in 3 years, our team will need to remove it as a theme option in the sites network so it will not pose a vulnerability risk.
LSA Web Services has installed a similar, yet modernized replacement, for the Coraline theme called “Astra.” We know it’s important to keep the minimalist and academic appearance of the Coraline theme and Astra fits that aesthetic.
Beginning this summer, LSA Web Services contact Coraline theme site owners to start the process of updating the site’s theme to one of our available options. We will assist in this process and support any additional work involved in transferring themes.
Site owners can also feel free to switch from the Coraline theme to one of our 5 other theme options (including Astra) at any time using the customizer.
If you have any questions about this process please feel free to contact us at lsa.web.support@umich.edu
Thank you!
Jessica Wolking
