Deprecated PHP (not compatible with PHP 8)

  • PHP Deprecated: Method ReflectionParameter::getClass() is deprecated in /path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-typography/vendor-scoped/level-2/dice/Dice.php on line 184

    I discovered this when using the search form caused a fatal error. Disabling the plugin made the error go away. But weirdly, re-enabling it doesn’t repeat the error, possibly due to caching?

    To follow up, the plugin triggered a fatal error on the homepage. I disabled it and the error resolved.

    I’d say this is a critical bug & should be addressed ASAP.

    I traced the fatal error to a PHP typo in my functions.php, so the plugin is not at fault. Nonetheless it does log a deprecation error for PHP8, which is not trivial. I’m not yet marking this closed for that reason.

    The plugin has not been updated for PHP8 yet (mainly due to pandemic exhaustion). The warning is an easy dependency upgrade, but I also need to verify the underlying library and I haven’t gotten around to that yet.

    (Also, mail notifications are broken again. Sorry for the delayed response.)

    Thanks. Leaving this open but as of now, it’s not really a support request — more of an open issue. No need to reply except to mark the fix has happened.

    The deprecations will be fixed in 5.8.0.
