PHP 8.0 Support

It should work with PHP 8.0 just fine. If WordPress won’t install automatically you can download the zip file and upload manually. If you are getting any particular PHP 8.0 errors then please copy them here and let me know.

Works correctly with PHP 8.1.24

Hi Wil, is this plugin not working with PHP v.8.0.5? we haven’t attempted a manual install, just wanted to make sure as it’s showing our PHP version as being out of date however it’s not.

Cheers

I’ve just tested it, and it is compatible with PHP 8.0.22 – the lowest I can go with LocalWP.

The error you’re getting doesn’t mean that the PHP version you are running on your server is out of date. It means the PHP version the plugin expects and has been tested with is PHP 8.1.

You can install it manually using a zip, and it *should* work on 8.0.5. If it doesn’t, and you can’t yet update to PHP 8.1, then perhaps you can bump up to 8.0.22.

The reason I’m leaving it at PHP 8.1 is that there are a few general quirks and edge cases with running WordPress on 8.0, plus the end of life for PHP 8.0 is Nov 26, 2023 (i.e. in 23 days from now).

Hope that helps.
