#WordPress is anyone more annoyed about all the warnings emanating from `_load_textdomain_just_in_time` in WP 6.7? I am. With some help from @johnbillion I give you the following plugin.

So I've built a composer library that's essentially a single file, < 200 lines, as drop-in updater for #WordPress plugins/themes. 2 lines of code to activate it.

Update server simply requires release versions of your plugin/themes (they don't have to active). You need Git Updater running on the backend not your users.

Test with https://github.com/afragen/test-plugin-gu-lite

I still have some testing with themes to do, but it's reasonably stable if anyone wants to take it for a spin.

Whoops... looks like I just got my first _functional_ PR merged into PHP Core (as in not a documentation PR). 🎉

Thanks @Girgias for merging this!

Hey #WordPress, let me and @costdev help y’all write better bug/test reports.

I'm proud to announce that as of today - the day of the first PHP 8.3-RC release - WordPress is beta compatible with PHP 8.3.

What that means is: everything we could find between static analysis and the tests has been fixed and all CI tasks pass on PHP 8.3 and CI is no longer allowed to fail on PHP 8.3.

No doubt there may still be some things which need fixing. If you find something, please report it.

Also see https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/59231 for a complete overview of all things WP and PHP 8.3.

WordPressCS 3.0.0 is now available

What a great job by the maintainer team @jrf_nl, Gary Jones, @made_by_denis.

Important sidenote: "Unless funding is found to continue maintaining WordPressCS and its dependencies, the future is bleak and maintenance will be halted."

Is your employer using the WordPressCS, or are you running a business and are you using it, donate to/sponsor the project, or its maintainers. #WordPress needs it.

Just released: WordPressCS 3.0.0 ! (at long last)

This is an important release which makes significant changes to improve the accuracy, performance, stability and maintainability of all sniffs, as well as making WordPressCS much better at handling modern PHP.

Please carefully read the changelog and upgrade guides before updating!

Other than that: enjoy!

Just released: PHPUnit Polyfills 1.1.0, which syncs with PHPUnit 9.6.11 and polyfills the backports of the `assertObjectHasProperty()` and `assertObjectNotHasProperty()` methods.

If your project is still limited to PHPUnit < 10, this upgrade allows you to get rid of the deprecation notices about the `assertObjectHasAttribute()` and `assertObjectNotHasAttribute()` methods.

If you are already using the PHPUnit Polyfills 2.0.0, you're good and can ignore this message.
