Both database versions on local seem to be released 4 years ago, I am getting messages from wordpress that the version I am using on my live site ( 10.3.38-MariaDB ) should be updated to version 10.4, the latest 10.4.32 is 10 months old, the version on Local is 10.4.10
Would it be possible to add a few more MariaDB versions so website could be tested with them please.

Clive
Hey @cwjs Welcome to the Local Community Forums!
Thanks for bringing this up! We’ll take a closer look and see what we can do!
Thank you Ben, I think this is a great resource and I think it would be really useful to add newer versions of all the parts (php etc) to keep up with wordpress developments.

WordPress 6.6 became available in July 2024 and recommends MariaDB version 10.5 or greater. see : https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/.
It would be great that LocalWP supports this version, and even 10.6.
Thank you @jpgoem
Our team has a ticket filed to look into updating this eventually, but we don’t have any sort of ETA to provide. Our usage for MariaDB in the Local app is very low so we have to prioritize other items that are more pressing.
