Making the move to PHP5
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Following on from this post made late last year, I have decided to move forward with PHP5 based development where it is appropriate.
This doesn’t mean that all future versions of our plugins will require PHP5, but if a particular bit of functionality can be developed quicker using PHP5 only code, then that will be the way I will approach it.
Also, whilst I am on the subject of backward compatibility, as WordPress 2.5 brings with it a brand new design to the administration system, I will also be working to this design for the plugin administration pages (though for the time-being I’m stuck because WordPress MU still has the old look).
So far only the development versions of the Property plugin and MyDashboard 0.5 are PHP5 only
