Скачать или смотреть NO MORE BROKEN MENUS: WordPress 6.9 FIXES Navigation Links

No more broken menus! In WordPress 6.9, Navigation block links can now automatically stay in sync with the pages, posts, or categories they point to — fixing a long-standing issue that caused broken links when URLs changed.

But here’s the catch: this new feature doesn’t apply to your existing menus unless you manually enable it. In this video, I’ll show you exactly how it works, how to enable it, and why it’s one of the most useful quality-of-life upgrades in WordPress 6.9.
