This notice relates to the following platforms: WordPress.com VIP, VIP Go
WPCS, the WordPress Coding Standards ruleset for PHPCS, has hit a milestone release of version 1.0 and one of the many changes included within this release is a deprecation of the WordPress-VIP ruleset.
All of the PHPCS rulesets for VIP are now part of the separate VIP coding standards. These rulesets are WordPressVIPMinimum and WordPress-VIP-Go.
If you are currently using the WordPress-VIP ruleset for PHPCS validation before code submission, please now switch to the alternatives, otherwise you won’t be able to validate your code before submission for review.
For more background on this release and the project in general, check out the post on VIP News.
If you have any questions, please open a support ticket and we’ll be happy to assist.
