PHP 7.0 compatability

  • FYI, PHP Compatibility Checker is reporting a warning for Easy Facebook Likebox as follows in relation to PHP 7.0 compatability:

    FILE: /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/easy-facebook-likebox/freemius/includes/fs-essential-functions.php
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOUND 0 ERRORS AND 1 WARNING AFFECTING 1 LINE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 147 | WARNING | Function name "__fs" is discouraged; PHP has reserved all method names with a double underscore prefix for future use
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As it was only a warning I went ahead and upgraded to PHP 7.0 but the widget now fails to display at all on the front-end. Have replaced with another plugin but any ideas how I can get yours to work again as it appears to have less overhead than others?

    Thanks.

  • From my understanding, a simple change of a function name “__fs” to, for example “_efl_fs” would work. Error message says it all: “PHP has reserved all method names with a double underscore prefix for future use”

    Lets hope the author will make this small change soon.
