 * We have installed php 8.0.9 in our test environment, and the health checker is
   happy saying we have the lastest php version. In our production enviroment, we
   still have 7.4.15 – but the health checker is STILL happpy and also there states
   that we have the latest version installed – which is obviuosly not the case. 
   Is there a bug in the program?
 * I checked the link you are referring to under the “more information” underneath
   the PHP version-accordion on the health status page; [https://wordpress.org/support/update-php/](https://wordpress.org/support/update-php/)
   The page suggest to use a plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/)
   to check php compatibility, but the plugin is 2 years outdated and only checks
   up to php 7.3. The content of the link might not be under the wings of you Health
   checker guys, but I just wanted to warn you since you are linking directly to
   this page.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-is-inconsistent-regarding-newest-php-version%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
