+title: Pantheon MU Plugin v1.5.0 release 
+published_date: "2024-07-29"
+categories: [wordpress, plugins]
+---
+
+The Pantheon MU Plugin [v1.5.0](https://github.com/pantheon-systems/pantheon-mu-plugin/releases) update is now available. This latest update is included with next version of WordPress and can be installed on [WordPress (composer managed)](https://docs.pantheon.io/guides/wordpress-composer) installs using composer update or by checking for updates in the dashboard.
+
+### What's new?
+
+This update introduces a new "comptibility layer" feature designed to enhance the compatibility of your site’s plugins. Here are the key highlights:
+
+* **Automatic compatibility fixes:** The compatibility layer automatically detects many plugins listed in our [WordPress Plugins and Themes with Known Issues](https://docs.pantheon.io/plugins-known-issues) guide. If a plugin is detected, relevant fixes are applied automatically.
+
+* **Compatibility reports:** If a plugin is detected but no fix is available, the compatibility layer generates a report for you.
+
+* **Site health integration:** Compatibility reports are added to a new section of the Site Health page, accessible under the Tools menu in your WordPress administration dashboard.
+
+Upgrade now to take advantage of these enhancements and ensure your plugins work seamlessly with your WordPress site.
