For how many years will it get support, security and bug fixes?
- philipwhiuk 2y agoSupport: 31 Dec 2026 Security: 31 Dec 2028 Bug Fixes: 31 Dec 2026 From https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php
- nedt 2y agoIf needed you can get LTS from Zend. They still offer security fixes for 7.2 until end of 2026 and 8.3 is supported until end of 2029. But that's just if upgrading every second or third year is too expensive to you.
- chx 2y agoZend offerings are confusing. https://www.zend.com/services/php-long-term-support https://www.zend.com/services/php-long-term-support only lists 8.0 and earlier, https://www.zend.com/products/zendphp-enterprise https://www.zend.com/products/zendphp-enterprise does have a chart showing 8.3 into 2029 but once again the text only mentions 8.0. What gives?
- nedt 2y agoAnything after 8.0 is not EOL. Security support for 8.1 is still provided by PHP itself until end 2025.
