  • Ticket #56034 – Description

    v3 v4  
    9999Now, while WP Core at least has tests for a small part of its codebase and runs those diligently, which allows for finding (a subset of the) dynamic properties via the deprecation notices, the majority of plugins/themes do not have any tests.

    101 As noted previously, finding dynamic properties via static analysis is hard, so these plugin/themes would have to largely rely on error logging/user reporting of the PHP 8.2 deprecation notices to fix things and that is still providing the plugin/theme is actively maintained, which a large number of plugins/themes are not.

    103103Also note that the PHP 8.x uptake under WordPress users is low (due to WP Core not being fully compatible) and the number of users logging errors is also low, so user reporting is not a reliable method to allow plugins/themes to get ready for this change.
