 Replying to [comment:13 derekpadula]:  Derek, according to WP earlier
 versions of WP are not safe for security reasons. I have to admit that
 I've thought of doing exactly what you suggest, but what is the risk of
 using an unsafe version?  I do not know.  WP should make the latest
 version useable, if they want to have me continue to use their product.
 So far, I've seen no response from WP on this issue and it is not my job
 to make their software useable or safe.  That responsibility resides with
 WP.

 > You don't need to abandon WordPress. Since 6.5.4 and earlier were
 working for you, and your site's database and multimedia files are intact,
 your site should work again if you do this:
 >
 > * Delete the current wp-admin and wp-includes directories and root files
 (except wp-config.php).
 > * Replace them with the default files from 6.5.4 or earlier from the
 WordPress releases archive.
 > * Add the code I provided to your wp-config.php and it will stop the
 site from auto-updating.
 >
 > Or start from scratch:
 >
 > * Backup your site by pulling down all of the files via FTP.
 > * Delete the current site's files on your server.
 > * Upload 6.5.4 or earlier.
 > * Then upload your original wp-content folder and wp-config.php.
 >
 > Either choice will take about 10 minutes.
 >
 > Avoid updating your core files until one of the WordPress staff members
 or volunteers acknowledges here that this is a problem and works on a
 solution.
 >
 > You won't notice a difference between 6.5.4 and future releases for a
 while to come. Despite their fancy marketing copy about each new release,
 pretty much everything stays the same.
 >
 > If you don't know how to do that, or want someone to do it for you, then
 you can direct message me on social media @derekpadula and hire me to walk
 you through it or do it for you.
