PHP 7.4 -> 8.0

Post by G4MHJ » Wed Sep 29, 2021 2:28 pm

I have just received this notification and wonder if Meteotemplate will continue to work without issues.

The note suggests that I might so I am worried.

I can revert back to 7.4 but it is hassle I do not want.

Here is the message I received:-

"During the first weeks of November, we will change "the latest stable PHP version" on our servers from version 7.4 to 8.0.

Because you use the latest stable version as the PHP version on your webspace for bobhewitt.co.uk, you may experience issues after the update, such as error messages or plugins not working correctly.

If your website isn’t working correctly after the update, we recommend that you first update your CMS and add-ons to the latest version. If this doesn’t solve it, you can manually downgrade back to PHP version 7.4 from the one.com control panel. This version will be available until it reaches end-of-life next year on 28 November 2022."

You will find things that do not work. There is no cohesive list, but some core code is affected.
