Readme github.com/helsingborg-stad/wpmu-fatal-error-when-translation-too-early ↗

A WordPress must-use plugin that turns WordPress's early translation-loading warning into a fatal error.

This helps identify plugins and themes that trigger translation loading before the init action. WordPress introduced this warning in version 6.7.

Requirements

PHP 7.4 or later
WordPress 6.7 or later

Installation

Install the package with Composer:

composer require helsingborg-stad/wpmu-fatal-error-when-translation-too-early

Composer installers places the plugin in WordPress's mu-plugins directory. Alternatively, copy wpmu-fatal-error-when-translation-too-early.php directly to wp-content/mu-plugins/.

Behavior

The plugin listens to WordPress's doing_it_wrong_run action. When WordPress reports misuse of _load_textdomain_just_in_time, it throws a RuntimeException containing WordPress's original message.

Other doing_it_wrong_run notices are not affected.
