PHP7.2 Compatibility Problems

One for WPGReady and the other developers if they’re still around. There are a few problems that people will face if they use the plugin with PHP7.2 installed. Most of these issues are deprecated features and so the errors could in theory just be hidden, but it’s always better to make sure they’re fixed.

From the latest PHP Compatibility plugin.
