Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A WordPress plugin scans plugins and themes for compatibility issues with PHP 8.0–8.6, reporting the affected file and line.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-06 issue.

For: WordPress site owners preparing for a PHP upgrade
Worth noticing: Its sample report points to create_function() at inc/render.php:236, then distinguishes deprecated code from code reported as breaking.

Field notes

The example output distinguishes a finding marked as breaking from deprecated code and a clean result, with file paths and line numbers for the first two. The free plugin is listed as requiring WordPress 6.0 and PHP 7.4 or newer. Pro is described as supporting up to 25 sites; its scheduled scans and exports stop when the license ends, while the free plugin keeps working.
