There was a problem hiding this comment.
I tried locally and got the following error for plugin that works good with 2.3.0:
In WPLoader.php line 507:
lucatume\WPBrowser\Module\WPLoader module is not configured!
The WordPress installation is already configured.
In Scaffolded.php line 43:
The WordPress installation is already configured.
Do we have a migration guide?

Thanks for testing. We shouldn't need a guide. Which plugin so I can test and see what's going on? Edit: it asked you to upgrade and download the new containers right? |
yes |

The main reason for these changes is to make
slic herework properly with actual WordPress site repositories.Previously slic assumed WordPress lived directly in the mounted directory and that content always lived in
wp-content/. This doesn't work very well for projects that install WordPress inwp/, usecontent/, or need the full project available inside the container.Main Changes
slic herenow mounts the entire WordPress project into/var/www/html, including projects that install WordPress inwp/.content/orwp-content/./var/www/html/wp-content.wp-content/directory when a project usescontent/due to docker mounts.2.4.0.release/x.x.xbranches and GitHub Releases.Previously slic would actually delete the project's
object-cache.phpbefore running tests. This is especially dangerous with site mode because that can be a real file in the repository.The object cache drop-in is now disabled inside the containers using a PHP prepend file. This leaves the host project's file completely untouched.
Testing
I tested this using the
software.liquidweb.comproject, which has WordPress installed inwp/and usescontent/instead ofwp-content/. I also tested on another of other projects/plugins./var/www/html./var/www/html/content.object-cache.phpis not changed or removed.object-cache.phpwhen one does not exist.slicand verify this would not break on those.I used this branch/images here: https://github.com/stellarwp/software.liquidweb.com/actions/runs/31132177214/job/92723444428?pr=326
