Pinging @pento as the Upgrade/Install maintainer.

I'm having trouble getting into the data element in the script tag so that I can make the compatibility tests. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi there,

I tested this patch and it works fine to me. Let's add a commit keyword as it need to be committed early.

I also added an alternative patch which remove <strong>Errors:</strong> from wp_die() as users may already know there is an error. See ticket #47656 also slated to milestone 5.5.

Yep then let’s commit 49334.diff as it and fix the issue with error messages in #47656 🚀

I like that idea.

In 47573:

Themes: Block theme activation if it requires a higher version of PHP or WordPress.

Introduce validate_theme_requirements() for validating a theme's WordPress and PHP version requirements.

Follow-up to [44978] and [45546] for plugins.

Props afragen, audrasjb, SergeyBiryukov.
See #49334.

#14 @SergeyBiryukov

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

In 47574:

Plugins: Simplify the logic of validate_plugin_requirements(), update documentation.

This updates the function for consistency with validate_theme_requirements().

Follow-up to [44978], [45546], [47573].

Fixes #43992.
