Hello,
I want to use PHP 8.0.
When do you start to support it?
Greetings
PHP 8.0 was release only 7 months ago - We still haven’t run full tests on PHP 8, so I would recommend keeping the MainWP server on PHP 7.x
PHP 8 is still pretty new and we will need more time to run tests before we can confirm full compatibility.
You may follow this thread here on the topic as well: https://newcom.mainwp.com/t/php-8-not-work-with-mainwp/2516/6
Ok sorry for asking but I thought 7 months is a long time now.
When do you plan to implement it?
Hi DuerrSteidle,
We don’t have an exact time-frame, but we will give our best to handle it for the next bit release (4.2)
Also, I want to stress that WordPress itself still doesn’t fully support PHP 8.
As per their records, PHP 8 is still “beta supported”.
In version 5.6, WordPress announced “beta support” and it’s still the same with the 5.8.
Support for the PHP 8 is in beta. Available here:
