# Filter Bar 5.6.1

### Summary

Maintenance Release

The latest update of Filter Bar removes the ``tribe_events_filters_css_version` filter and migrates the build system to wp-scripts.

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.
