About KAGG Compatibility
From the official readme · v2.5.0Description
WordPress is not fully compatible with PHP 8.0-8.5. The remaining known PHP 8.0+ issues are deprecation notices.
The same is related to many popular plugins such as WooCommerce, Jetpack, Gravity Forms, and others. Mainly, they produce deprecation notices from the Action Scheduler library.
Features
- The plugin blocks deprecation notices, user deprecation notices, notices, warnings, user notices, and user warnings.
- The list of folders from which errors are blocked can be filtered. This list may specify any WordPress Core, plugin, and theme folders.
- Plugin filters out errors from these folders only. Errors produced by other code are not blocked, which helps in debugging user code.
- During activation, the plugin installs a mu-plugin
kagg-compatibility-error-handler.phpinto the/wp-content/mu-plugins/folder. It contains the error handler, which loads earlier than any plugin or theme.
