Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):
Hi there, thanks for the ticket!
Replying to [ticket:61873 gansbrest]:
> Short summary of the problem: When `error_reporting` function is
disabled on the hosting provider, it breaks admin area due to the fact
that `wp-admin/load-styles.php` and `wp-admin/load-scripts.php` are
triggering it without checking.
>
> Some work has been done to resolve the problem on #52226
>
> Unfortunately it doesn't address the issue completely as it only adds
checks to the `wp-load.php` file.
As noted in the commit message for [50447]:
> On systems with this function disabled, it's best to add a dummy
function to the `wp-config.php` file, as there are multiple other calls in
core or plugins.
>
> However, as this call to the function is run prior to `wp-config.php`
loading, it is now wrapped in a `function_exists()` check.
There are quite a few other `error_reporting()` calls in core, a quick
search shows 21 matches in 11 files. However, defining an empty function
in `wp-config.php` should resolve the issue without changing all those
instances:
{{{
function error_reporting() {}
}}}
A`function_exists()` check was only added to `wp-load.php` is because it
runs before `wp-config.php` is loaded.
