Here’s a roundup of the fixes we’ve shipped since Hotfix roundup: June 15–19, 2026.

  • Subtitles, featured-image position, and similar fields you edit through the editor’s Custom Fields box are editable again, while still being protected from getting silently overwritten when you save a post. A recent fix had removed those fields from the Custom Fields box entirely, which blocked publishers who add subtitles that way. (newspack-theme@2.23.5, newspack-block-theme@1.28.6)
  • Fixes an error that could interrupt syncing a reader’s details to your newsletter provider when no extra profile information was attached to them. (newspack@6.43.9)
  • Members added to a membership team now always have their access expire no later than the team’s own expiration date, so a team seat can’t outlive the team it belongs to. (newspack@6.43.8)
  • In the email-verification step readers see after registering, the Go back button is now labeled Skip for now, making it clearer that the button simply closes the prompt rather than undoing the sign-up. (newspack@6.43.7)
  • Fixes campaign prompt settings being lost on save for editors who have WordPress’s Custom Fields box turned on — your changes to a prompt now stick instead of reverting to the previous values. This is the campaigns-side counterpart to the Custom Fields editing fix in the themes, above. (newspack-popups@3.13.1)
  • Newsletter sends through ActiveCampaign are more resilient when ActiveCampaign’s own service is slow to respond, and a send that has to be retried no longer risks going out twice. (newspack-newsletters@3.34.4)
  • Fixes newsletters going to the wrong list or segment — or, for ActiveCampaign, to your entire audience — when you changed the send-to settings and published in one step without saving first. It also clears a false “Please input sender name and email address” error in that same situation. (newspack-newsletters@3.34.3)
