The HostingHostingA web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web. Community team has been asked to audit the list of recommend PHP extensions in the Hosting Community handbook. Thank you to everyone who has participated! Some details being discussed are:
• Should the Hosting Handbook recommend extensions beyond what coreCoreCore is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Team builds WordPress. requires? • Should Site HealthSite HealthThis WordPress functionality will perform a number of checks on your installation to detect common configuration errors and known issues, and also allows plugins and themes to add their own checks. Check recommend extensions beyond what core requires? • Where should requirements and recommendations for core be located? • What changes would you recommend making to the current list?
Some hosts mentioned that offering both a list of required extensions as well as recommended ones would be useful, provided that it is made clear what is required and what is not.
Some ideas are:
• Info on PHP extensions could be provided as a phpinfo page under Site Health – > Info in wp-admin.
• An alert in wp-admin could notify users if a required extension is missing.
• List extensions both required and recommended in the handbook for reference.
