New version 3.2.11 installed Jul 17 is no longer compatible w/PHP 8.3

    This long-standing WordPress 6.6 website has been using the FREE version of Restrict Content plugin with no compatibility problems at the BlueHost ISP. BlueHost ISP is running PHP 8.3.

    Suddenly when the newest update (version 3.2.11) of Restrict Content plugin was installed 4 days ago, the plugin produces a message on my WordPress dashboard saying “a critical error has occurred on the site”. And my WordPress Dashboard becomes inaccessible. BlueHost Tech Support representative says the cause of this critical error is the Restrict Content plugin is no longer compatible w/the version of PHP that they have been running: PHP 8.3.

    The Restrict Content requirements say this plugin requires “Requires PHP Version: 7.4 or higher”. Before this 3.2.11 version update in Restrict Content, this incompatibility problem did not exist w/PHP 8.3.

    I have to DEACTIVATE the Restrict Content plugin in order to access my Bluehost Dashboard. Now because I deactivated the Restrict Content plug, you will see the plugin’s LOGIN FORM at https://montevalle.org/members/ is not functional.

    Do you have a FIX for this incompatibility problem? Please help me fix this problem because I need the functionality of the Restrict Content plugin to protect content in the “private Members area”.

    Thank you very much

    Version 3.2.12 solved my problem (which was the WordPress dashboard message “a critical error has occurred on the site”. And my WordPress Dashboard becomes inaccessible).?

    Thank you for promptly resolving this.
