Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about PHP Compatibility Checker
Yes, this plugin can be used any ANY WordPress website on ANY host.
As of the 1.6.0 release this plugin no longer includes the phpcompat WP-CLI command. If you still require use of that command, then please run version 1.5.2 or older of this plugin as those versions extend WP-CLI and provide commands.
We maintain a whitelist of plugins that cause false positives. If your plugin shows up as incompatible but you think that is wrong, please open a GitHub issue on the project, or email wordpress@wpengine.com with info about your plugin and why you know it is compatible (you have automated tests, the failure is on backwards compatibility code paths, etc).
Yes! While you cannot use this WordPress plugin to test your non-WordPress projects, you can use the Open Source PHPCompatibility Library that this plugin is built on.
If your plugin or theme is not available on WordPress.org, then Tide will not be able to scan or return results of that plugin or theme. If your plugin or theme is available on WordPress.org, but Tide is not immediately returning results than it likely means Tide has not yet audited that plugin or theme and within a few minutes results should be available once Tide completes its audit.
As of version 1.6.0 of this plugin, there should no longer be issues of the scan getting stuck as it no longer runs on your WordPress host server. If you are seeing significantly slow or unresponsive results from a plugin or theme that is available on WordPress.org, then please open an issue with those details for the Tide team to investigate why that specific plugin or theme version is not appearing in the Tide results.
Yes! WP Engine has a public GitHub repo where you can contribute back to this plugin. Please open an issue on the Plugin GitHub. We actively develop this plugin, and are always happy to receive pull requests. The plugin was created by WP Engine to help the WordPress community increase adoption of modern PHP versions. We welcome contributors to this plugin, and are excited to see how developers and other WordPress hosts use this plugin. To disclose security issues for this plugin please email WordPress@wpengine.com.
