Plugin: Synchronize PHP changes for WordPress 6.3 release #51077
Description
The issue tracks changes to PHP files that (might) need to be backported and merged to Core for the WordPress 6.3 release. The list is exhaustive so it may cover multiple PRs and experimental changes that won't be in 6.3.
Beta 1 is June 27, 2023
Tips 👀
- Please open a new Core Trac ticket for each PR and link it next to the citation in this issue. 🙇
- For ease of cross-linking and tracking, you can submit your PRs to WordPress/wordpress-develop. Refer to docs on how to fork the repository and create a PR. Link any backport PR next to the citation in this issue. 🙇
- Try to limit PRs to one feature to make reviewing easier and the commit history clear. See why
- Modifications/additions to PHP unit tests aren't listed: any unit tests introduced in the cited PRs should also be ported over where applicable.
- Once your backport PR is up, add it to the WordPress 6.3 Editor Tasks project board so folks can review it. Thank you!
❗ This is a living document and will be constantly updated as we approach beta. Sorry if you were mistakenly pinged! If a file or files have already been backported, please tick them off and link to the backport PR/trac issue.
Or, if the changes are not slated for WordPress 6.3, you can strike them or make a comment in this issue. Thank you! 🙇
PRs to be backported will have the "Needs PHP backport" label applied.
