 Hi,

 the Wordpress dashboards warns a user for an old Firefox Version, even if
 the user has an ESR Version. But many companies are using the Firefox ESR
 Version.
 So, it's not fully correct, that the Firefox is outdated.

 The problem is, that many non-technical people are " frightened" about
 that message.

 I suggest three possibilities
 1. On the ESR Version the message did not appear.
 2. There is a new configuration option to disable the message for the
 whole wordpress
 3. The message is changed to something like: "You don't have the newest
 Firefox, but a safe one. You only dont' have the newest sh**" ;)

 Best regards!
