    Just wanted to report this. Have been testing PHP 8 and since gone back to 7.4 as i’ve had a few issues with various things.

    I caught this in my debug.log though I didn’t see anything on the front end, I was working on something else entirely.

    Hi @outdoorsdev1,

    Thanks for the heads up! Someone else had reported this before as well but I can’t remember where.

    I looked into it and I think I have a potential fix ready, just haven’t had the chance to set up a Docker container to fully test WPP under PHP 8 yet.

    I’ll leave a comment here (and possibly push a new update too) once I’m done testing.

    Hey there!

    Just so you and anybody else reading this know: Improves compatibility with PHP 8.

    There are still a few things I want to work on so this fix won’t make it to the WP repository just yet but thought you may want to know.

    If I may chime in here. I’m running WPP on 2 sites using Siteground’s Ultra Fast php 8.0.2, so far so good.

    Here is one such live site, https://www.thetastychilli.com, but I’m still monitoring, so first sign of trouble anywhere I may have to revert to 7.4
