Task Description

According to our stats it should be safe to bump our minimum WordPress version requirement to 6.1+ this summer, while at the same time preparing for 6.3 (see #13259)

Such a bump usually allows us to remove some technical debt both on the PHP and JS side of the plugin. We definitely have a bunch of related TODOs in our code.

The 6.1 field guide should be helpful.

Tasks include:

  • Bump in readme.txt
  • Bump in web-stories.php (twice)
  • Update minimum_supported_wp_version in phpcs.xml.dist
  • Run e2e tests against 6.1 instead of 6.0
  • Run unit tests against 6.1 instead of 6.0

Usage numbers of WP 6.0 are very low already. I also just changed our CI to run against 6.1+ instead of 6.0 because of the recurring failures we had there that I couldn't figure out.
