Tip
  • Packages created prior to 04/08/2023 support all versions with 8.1 as default.
  • PHP 5.6 - 7.4 are EOL; only offer these if strictly necessary due to security risks.
  • If a version is retired from a package, existing sites using it will remain on it until manually changed.
  • Note: WordPress does not support PHP 5.6 through 7.3.
