  23
  24 * **_CiviCase_: Action links are missing text labels ([dev/core#1899](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/-/issues/1899):
  25   [#17947](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/17947))**
  26 * **_CiviContribute_: When editing "Amounts", default is mis-saved ([dev/core#1911](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/-/issues/1911):
  27   [#17960](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/17960))**
  28
  29   If you recently edited any "Amounts", then please review and verify that the default is correct.
  30   Mis-saved defaults can cause problems when submitting contributions.
  31
  32 * **_CiviMail_: Blasts sent via Job Manager do not recover from errors ([dev/mail#72](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/mail/-/issues/72):
  33   [#18017](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/18017))**
  34 * **_WordPress_: `[civicrm.files]` is incorrect on older sites ([dev/wordpress#66](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/wordpress/-/issues/66):
  35   [#17868](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/17868))**
  36
  37   This fixes a regression affecting older WordPress deployments by partially reverting
  38   [dev/wordpress#47](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/wordpress/-/issues/47).  This means that some WordPress configurations
  39   (eg Polylang) may return to being unsupported.  The issue is scheduled to be revisited circa 5.29.
