    Hello. My question is related to incompatibility report generated by PHP Compatibility Checker for the TablePress plugin I use on my website. The plugin is at its latest version 1.12. When I ran the check for compatibility with PHP 7.3 there are four warnings as follows:
    993 | WARNING | INI directive ‘mbstring.func_overload’ is deprecated since PHP 7.2
    997 | WARNING | INI directive ‘mbstring.func_overload’ is deprecated since PHP 7.2
    1005 | WARNING | INI directive ‘mbstring.func_overload’ is deprecated since PHP 7.2
    1009 | WARNING | INI directive ‘mbstring.func_overload’ is deprecated since PHP 7.2

    Can you help me resolve these, so that I can update my website to the latest PHP?
    Thank you!

    AFAIK, only Bitrix is requiring mbstring.func_overload set to value greater than 0

    For WordPress you should always use
    mbstring.func_overload = 0
    which is default value (You can just remove the setting from php.ini)

    Having this setting set to other value than 0 can lead to various problems with plugins and sometimes even WP core, those issues are hard to solve, unless you reset mbstring.func_overload to 0

    In the PHP 8.0 this ridiculous setting has been removed completely. Finally and for good.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    No worries, everything’s compatible here, please see https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/is-tablepress-compatible-with-php-7-and-php-7-1/
    TablePress only uses this PHP function if it is actually available. You can ignore these warnings and safely update your site to a modern version of PHP (I recommend PHP 7.4.)

    Regards,
    Tobias
