Description

There are few classes where doc comments are missing for public property declaration.

Examples:

<?php
class WP_Customize_Image_Control extends WP_Customize_Upload_Control {
  public $type      = 'image';
  public $mime_type = 'image';
  ...
}

The above class extends WP_Customize_Upload_Control:

<?php
class WP_Customize_Upload_Control extends WP_Customize_Media_Control {
  public $type          = 'upload';
  public $mime_type     = '';
  public $button_labels = array();
  public $removed       = ''; // unused
  public $context; // unused
  public $extensions = array(); // unused
  ...
}

Although the properties are documented in WP_Customize_Media_Control, it would be good to have them documented inside the scope of each class also. Otherwise one has to navigate to the class which it extends to read the actual documentation. Some cases like the one above could have a multi-level navigation.

Is this worth doing for the sake of better code readability?

Hi there, thanks for the patches!

Some history on the @since tags here:

  • These properties were introduced in [20319] / #19910, the version should be 3.4.0:
    • WP_Customize_Upload_Control::$type
    • WP_Customize_Image_Control::$type
  • These were introduced in [30309] / #21483, the version should be 4.1.0:

    • WP_Customize_Image_Control::$mime_type
  • WP_Customize_Media_Control was introduced later in [31698] / #29215, that's why its properties are marked as @since 4.2.0, see [32023] / #31888.
