WordPress 2.8.4: Not ready to be installed with PHP 5.3 ?

Posted on 01. Sep, 2009 by Dragos in Coding, PHP

I’ve just tried to install WordPress 2.8.4 on my testing machine (PHP 5.3). Right on the installation page a dozen of errors filled my screen, something like:

Strict Standards: Declaration of Walker_Page::start_lvl() should be compatible with that of Walker::start_lvl() in /opt/lampp/htdocs/wordpress/wp-includes/classes.php on line 1214

This is not a big issue and it doesn’t interrupt the installation, it’s just that PHP 5.3 has many new changes compared to previous versions of PHP. However, wordpress should still correct those errors, because it doesn’t look so good to see errors right on the installation page.
