How to fix WordPress 5.5 Breaking Sites issues?
Updating to WordPress 5.5 is breaking websites and causing different errors/problems. Users are reporting issues like featured image is not working properly or website pagination is broken and plugin like wpbakery is having issue after WordPress 5.5 update.

The reason is that WordPress in its latest 5.5 release has deprecated the support for jQuery Migrate, which is a JavaScript library. What this library do is that it helps the themes and plugins that are using older JavaScript code to function properly on WordPress websites.
Now as WordPress 5.5 has removed the jQuery Migrate library, now any theme or plugin that depends on this library will not work properly and will cause issue on your website.
Now there are different ways to cater this issue. First one is that you should update every theme and plugin on your website to its latest version in hope that their developers have taken WordPress 5.5 update into account and has updated their themes or plugins accordingly.
But if updating themes and plugins didn’t do the work for you then the other option is to enable jQuery Migrate library on your website. How you can do that? Let me show you. For this purpose we will use a plugin called “Enable jQuery Migrate Helper” which is developed by WordPress team itself. Installing this plugin will solve your issue.
