Description

From 9757 we agree uploading a plugin should check PHP required version.

We already check the package is a valid plugin and I think we can add both verifications: Requires PHP and Requires at least. And extend it to themes.

  • Keywords needs-design needs-unit-tests added

Added a PR with validation to themes and plugins.
I'm using the same strings from 9757 to keep UX.

Here are prints for each case:

PHP Version for Plugin

WP Version for Theme

I guess we can improve this UI at least with the link do HelpHub like @desrosj suggested.
Maybe keep version string in another line?

Replying to mariovalney:

(@desrosj suggests) When the PHP or WordPress requirements are not met, can we link to the HelpHub so that the user has some direction: Maybe this page: https://wordpress.org/support/update-php/?

Let's address this in 5.5.1.

48666.diff doesn't seem to work as expected in my testing:

  • WP_Upgrader_Skin:error() runs the message through esc_html( strip_tags( ... ) ), so any links are stripped. That was likely added for a reason, so I'm not very comfortable with changing that in a minor release.
  • I think the message should use the checks and functions used for similar messages elsewhere: current_user_can( 'update_php' ), wp_get_update_php_url(), wp_get_update_php_annotation().

Going to re-close this as fixed in 5.5. Created #51152 for addressing the remaining bits.
