New required header fields for style.css

The following fields are required to be added in the style.css header:

  • Tested up to – the version of WordPress that the theme has been tested against. This should be numbers only, so ‘5.0’ and not ‘WP 5.0’;
  • Requires PHP – this field states the lowest version of PHP that the theme can utilize. If empty, it will default to whatever the oldest version of PHP that WordPress supports.
