WordPress developer needed for quick php update

I’m looking for an experienced WordPress developer to help me safely update the PHP version on my website. I’ve updated the PHP version on this website before, but after the update, some issues resurfaced later and eventually caused the website to go down for several days. Because of that experience, I’m a bit hesitant to simply run the PHP update again without having someone experienced check everything first. My WordPress dashboard is currently showing that a PHP update is recommended/required again, and I’d like a developer who can handle this carefully and make sure the website remains fully functional. What I need: - Check the current PHP version and recommended version - Check WordPress, themes, and plugins for compatibility issues - Safely update PHP - Test the website thoroughly after the update - Identify and fix any PHP-related errors or compatibility issues - Make sure the website, forms, pages, and important functionality continue working properly - Ideally, take a backup or confirm that a reliable backup/restore point exists before making changes This should be a quick job for someone experienced with WordPress and PHP updates, but I want it handled carefully because of my previous experience. Please mention your experience with WordPress PHP version updates and troubleshooting PHP compatibility issues when applying.
