Description
WordPress 5.7 is changing from jQuery version 1.12.4 to jQuery 3.5.1!
We are using Select2.js for a few of our plugins. There are few deprecated methods stated by WordPress in Select2.js.
here is a list of those -
isFunction()
bind() -> https://api.jquery.com/bind/#bind-eventType-eventData-handler
trim() -> https://api.jquery.com/jQuery.trim/#jQuery-trim-str
focus()
I can see the isFunction() is changed in your recent beta update. Looking forward to the compatibility update.
