 We have been running 5.4.2 since it was released and built out an
 education site using Learnpress with Paid Memberships Pro.  We had revised
 some of the code and behaviors of how the dashboards worked with students.
 Everything worked just fine until we upgraded to 5.5.  Once we upgraded,
 the menus for the course were inert and did nothing, none of the courses
 would come up and allow access as before even though those settings were
 the same.  We installed the site on another server using 5.4.2 and
 everything worked fine again...tried the 5.5 upgrade and the site was
 trashed.  Not sure what would have changed as issues like this are very
 rare for us and haven't occurred for many years until now.

 Running PHP 7.4.8
 Running Astra Theme
 Plugins:  Learnpress, paid memberships pro, itheme security, sucuri
 security, ninja firewall, litespeed cache, woocommerce and additional
 learnpress plugins
