# Filter Bar 5.5.10

### Summary

Maintenance Release

This version of Filter Bar ensures that filtering by venue or organizer works on WPML-translated pages, along with accessibility improvements.

As always, we recommend [testing updates](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-staging-site/) on a staging site first, but it should all be smooth sailing.
