 [ VIP MU plugins [Staging] ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-mu-plugins-staging/)

 [ GitHub  ](https://github.com/Automattic/vip-go-mu-plugins/pull/7157)

 [ Permalink  ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-mu-plugins-staging/vip-mu-plugins-v20260804-1/)

### Changed

 * Real-Time Collaboration: Avoids showing a newer-autosave warning when the autosaved
   content is already confirmed in the shared document, while retaining the warning
   when content may be missing because a user edited alone or the collaboration 
   backend was unavailable. See WordPress/gutenberg#80539.
 * Real-Time Collaboration: Compacts the CRDT snapshot when serializing it for persistence,
   preventing deleted editing history from continually inflating post meta without
   removing the live session’s undo history. See WordPress/gutenberg#80707.
 * Real-Time Collaboration: Retains the inner-template synchronization fix from 
   WordPress/gutenberg#79021. The VIP RTC plugin version is unchanged at `v0.3.2`.
 * Updated the wp-parsely submodule (used for local development environments) to
   version 3.23.5.

### Fixed

 * Real-Time Collaboration: Prevents derived updates from controlled blocks such
   as Navigation from intercepting a collaborator’s first undo or clearing redo.
   See WordPress/gutenberg#80503.
 * Post Preview: When RTC is disabled, uses WordPress Core’s autosave handling so
   reverting a title to its published value does not leave Preview showing stale
   autosave content. See WordPress/gutenberg#80769.

 [ VIP MU plugins [Production] ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-mu-plugins-production/)

 [ GitHub  ](https://github.com/Automattic/vip-go-mu-plugins/pull/7156)

 [ Permalink  ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-mu-plugins-production/vip-mu-plugins-v20260804-0/)

### Fixed

 * Fixed `admin_url()` resolving to the production hostname on sandboxes, which 
   caused cross-origin request failures for AJAX calls using `admin-ajax.php`.
 * Real-Time Collaboration: Preserved collaborators’ unsaved content and post meta
   when another user saves, prevented redundant empty autosave revisions, and restored
   undo and redo when plugins with incompatible meta boxes disable collaboration.
 * Real-Time Collaboration: Disabled Quick Edit for posts with active collaborative
   sessions and improved remote cursor and selection positioning while resizing 
   the browser window.
 * VIP Image Resize: Fixed full-size image requests returning theme-constrained 
   dimensions instead of the original attachment dimensions.

### Changed

 * Real-Time Collaboration: Updated the bundled Gutenberg integration from the `
   0.2-20260706-pr79021` build based on Gutenberg 23.5.0 to the `0.2-20260720-pr79021`
   build based on the July 20 Gutenberg trunk snapshot. The VIP RTC plugin remains
   at v0.3.2.
 * Real-Time Collaboration: Added independent controls for collaborator join, leave,
   and post-update notifications, and avoided synchronous CRDT updates while editing
   alone to reduce typing latency outside active collaboration.
 * Updated the wp-parsely submodule (used for local development environments) to
   version 3.23.4.
 * VIP Image Resize: Add the vip_image_resize_use_theme_json_layout_widths filter
   to opt out of using theme.json layout widths.

 [ Permalink  ](https://docs.wpvip.com/changelog/vip-cli/vip-cli-v4-0-11/)

   mode for an environment.

   you explicitly opt in to wait with `--rechallenge-wait` or `VIP_RECHALLENGE_WAIT
   =1`.
 * Production defensive-mode mutations in non-interactive workflows now require 
   explicit confirmation bypass via `--skip-confirmation`.
 * Dev-env: Limit `vip-dev-env.yml.ejs` to plain YAML with `<%= configDir %>` substitution.

### Fixed

 * Login and logout now clear cached elevated permissions to prevent reuse across
   account switches on the same machine.
