Php error using php 8 – causing problems in cms

Hi Dan,

The Cookiebot plugin uses an older version of the php-di dependency in order to support older versions of PHP.

Can you please elaborate on which WordPress functions you’ve been having issues with? Usually a deprecation message won’t cause any problems.

Kind Regards,

I am sorry for the late reply. I will appreciate if you can provide php 8 compatibility as many other developers have done and are doing. If someone is using a very old php version it is their problem, not yours.

Hi Dan14

I just got word from Cookiebot that the issue should be resolved in the future Cookiebot release version 3.11.0

I hope this also solves your problem.

Kind regards
Wendy

Hi Dan,

This issue was resolved with release 3.11.0 on 23 Jul, 2021.
https://github.com/CybotAS/CookiebotWP/releases/tag/v.3.11.0

We removed the PHP-DI dependency because we had to use an outdated version to maintain compatibility with older PHP versions. This caused some issues with PHP 8 instead. So we replaced the entire thing with a custom lightweight class to handle dependency injection across the plugin code.

With the removal of PHP-DI, the Cookiebot plugin no longer contains any Composer dependencies.

Kind regards,
