 * Are there plans to ensure WP works on PHP7?
 * I just installed the PHP7 beta2, and while I haven’t seen any errors yet, I am
   getting the following notices:
 *     ```

 * Hi,
 * I moved your thread, as the forum you were using is meant for discussing the 
   current beta release of WordPress 4.3 which I believe you may not be using 🙂
 * WordPress 4.3 will actually deprecate the use of PHP4 style constructors for 
   this exact purpose, you can read more about that at [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/07/02/deprecating-php4-style-constructors-in-wordpress-4-3/](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/07/02/deprecating-php4-style-constructors-in-wordpress-4-3/)

 * Yes, that’s correct. I couldn’t find a link to download any beta version, just
   the nightlies.
 * Thanks for the link to that post, judging by [this](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/32990)
   it looks like it’s all in hand. (Assuming those changes are actually carried 
   through to the next release).
