    Firstly, thanks to the devs for this plugin. It’s a brilliant tool to show your latest news post on the homepage. We updated our server to PHP7 recently, and the plugin’s shortcode actually stops the rest of the page loading. Running a debugger, we get the following 2 fatal errors.

    Notice: Undefined index: post__not_in in /home/DIR/public_html/wp-content/plugins/advanced-post-list/includes/class/APLQuery.php on line 437

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_internal_encoding() in /home/DIR/public_html/wp-content/plugins/advanced-post-list/includes/class/apl-shortcodes.php on line 833

    Sure enough, there were no instances of APL in either documents, but 100% if it’s designed like that and the Call() is actually the problem.

    Has anyone else had problems with later WordPress installs and this plugin?

    Hey @bravo315

    Have you had a chance to talk to your hosting providers?

    Hey @ekojr, so sorry I haven’t replied before now – you’re 100% correct. Enabling mbstring has resolved the issue and I can confirm the current plugin (0.3.4) is working as intended on WP 4.7.3.

    Thank you for looking into the matter and the great support.

    That’s great to hear! I was a bit worried, but after 2 weeks (with troubleshooting threads), I usually mark threads as resolved. Assuming ppl aren’t coming back because they no longer have a problem.

    Thank you for posting a reply though. It puts my mind at ease ??
