    Is the Remote Content Shortcode plugin compatible with PHP 7.2?

    I tried to use the PHP Compatibility Checker plugin from WPEngine but it’s not able to scan the plugin in the time allowed.

    Sorry, the site is not publically available, but, the behavior I see is the page with the shortcode will render up until the shortcode is encountered. Without debugging turned on it’s just a blank spot in the page, with debugging it shows:

    Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class ‘DOMDocument’ not found in /wp-content/plugins/remote-content-shortcode/inc/phpQuery.php:255
    Stack trace:

    It looks like you don’t have php-xml installed. Depending on your OS you can install it via something like sudo apt-get install -y php-xml for Ubuntu/Debian or sudo yum install -y php-xml for CentOS/Redhat. Make sure to restart Apache/php-fpm/etc before testing.

    Thanks! I’ve got php-xml installed now.

    When I run the PHP Compatibility Checker I get a couple of errors:
    FILE: /wp-content/plugins/remote-content-shortcode/inc/phpQuery.php

    It looks like it may not be compatible with 7.2 based on your report. The phpQuery.php file is included from here https://github.com/punkave/phpQuery and hasn’t been updated in 7 years so it’s not surprising it’s out of date.

    If you have time to patch it or can find an updated library please let me know and I will try to get it updated. Otherwise I can try to update it when I have time, but I am fairly busy with other work right now.

    Thanks!

    It looks like phpQuery is now being kept up to date here https://github.com/slaith/phpQuery
