Conflict: P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler)

Hi Florin,

What happens if you activate the Login IP & Country Restriction plugin and the other one is deactivated?

Hi, Iulia,

If P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) is already activated, then I cannot activate Login IP & Country Restriction. The message is:

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Fatal error: strict_types declaration must be the very first statement in the script in 
/home/..../public_html/wp-content/plugins/login-ip-country-restriction/login-restrict-country.php on line 33

If there is Login IP & Country Restriction activated and I activate P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) then the entire blog is down (blank). The same error is found in this case in the site logs.

My solution was to comment this line:
//declare( strict_types = 1 );

There seems to be an issue with P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler), either it is not compatible with the latest PHP version or the latest core version.

I installed the plugin to the latest core version and checked and indeed, the plugin is breaking the whole scripts that are updated for PHP8 compatibility.

It’s worth asking for support on that plugin forum as well, maybe they are working on updating the code to work for the latest versions or prepare for PHP8.

Try to deactivate that plugin, then activate the Login IP & Country Restriction and see if you get any errors after that.

Let me know if this helps.

Have a nice evening,

This is what I could find when debugging P3, if this helps in any case.

This is the error when debugging P3

So, the plugin P3 is looking for some mu-plugins files regardless of being installed as a regular plugin. That triggers header errors, hence the “strict_type” declaration will not be seen as the first thing.

Hi,
It’s up to you if you find that using strict_types is suitable or not in this moment. There could be more plugins incompatible with this.
It seems that there is no performance advantages (yet) for using strict_types in PHP.

Hi Florin,

I added some compatibility changes to the latest plugin. Please upgrade and let me know if this is still an issue for you.
