Re: Textpattern demo sites - stack changes, upgrades, tweaks et cetera
Changed: dev-demo now uses PHP 8.5 (currently beta 3).
beta-demo still uses PHP 8.4 but this will also change to PHP 8.5 if a further Textpattern beta release is forthcoming.

Re: Textpattern demo sites - stack changes, upgrades, tweaks et cetera
Changed: php-next-demo disabled. Please use dev-demo instead.
dev-demo has the same configuration as php-next-demo since its recent promotion to PHP 8.5, so php-next-demo has begun a 9-month extended leave of absence until the next-next PHP (PHP 9? PHP 8.6? PHP 26?) starts its run.

…and do this whole dance again for a patch release in December when PHP 8.5 finally lands? A bit more patience will be worth it.
(Something about “don’t make me pull this issue over, sonny” and so on.)
