Comment (by smit08):

 Hi @swissspidy, I looked into the issue. I think we need to update the
 description. I checked the /inc/template-tags.php file and found that the
 $post variable is overridden, but it is now on line 155.

 Here is the line I found, along with the comment:


 {{{
 global $post; // Modify the global post object before setting up post
 data.
 }}}
