Hi !

There’s so many PHP extensions than I don’t know if there are all relevant for a WordPress and Bricks Builder web site…

My host SQL server is working on MariaDB.

In my case, my PHP configuration is like that :

PHP version: 8.1
memory_limit: 512M
post_max_size: 512M

Enabled: zlib.output_compression

Extensions (actually activated) who can be deactivated:

  1. bcmath
  2. dom
  3. fileinfo
  4. gd
  5. imagick
  6. imap
  7. intl
  8. ldap
  9. mbstring
  10. mysqlnd
  11. nd_mysqli
  12. nd_pdo_mysql
  13. opcache
  14. pdo
  15. pdo_pgsql
  16. pdo_sqlite
  17. pgsql
  18. phar
  19. posix
  20. soap
  21. sockets
  22. tidy
  23. xmlreader
  24. xmlwriter
  25. xsl
  26. zip

Is there some extensions useless for a WordPress and Bricks Builder web site ?

Thanks in advance for the intel :smiley:

You can view the basic extensions and settings needed to work.:

For Wordpress: /wp-admin/site-health.php?tab=debug

For Bricks: /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bricks-system-information

For Woocommerce: /wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-status

The installation of other extensions on the server depends on the additional plugins that you will add to the site. Developers usually write in the documentation what needs to be installed on the server.

Ok, so, there is no global parameter to take into account, it is really on the specifics of each theme or plugin that certain PHP functionalities are necessary.

Thanks :slight_smile:
