PHP 8.2 Compatibility Still Broken

Hi @galapogos01

At the time being, we can’t give you an estimate for when the team will look into or fix the issue, as bug reports are prioritized based on a few criteria.

In the meantime, you may consider downgrading your PHP version to a stable and compatible one to avoid these warnings, if that’s feasible for your setup.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

The plugin changelog states it’s been tested against PHP 8.3 – clearly not very well!

Hi @galapogos01

I installed the latest version, upgraded my PHP to 8.3, and turned on the debug mode. Once I checked my debug log file, I still spotted the depreciation error from Braintree in the WooCommerce Payment Gateway plugin. Interestingly, the PHP 8.1 version didn’t produce any warning.

I will make sure to forward this to our dev team. In the meantime, you may consider downgrading your PHP version to 8.1 to avoid these warnings, if that’s feasible for your setup.

I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this provides some clarity. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Hello to you @shameemreza ,

To follow up on @galapogos01 post, the plugin can run with PHP 8.2 or PHP 8.3 but doesn’t play well with those environments, especially with Woocommerce Subscriptions. Downgrading to PHP 8.1 didn’t help at the first sight.

The task scheduler failed to perform correctly on 2 different hosting platforms if I don’t exclude all notices and warnings from the PHP error log settings ??

Manually triggering renewal payments and a few other actions performed correctly but crashed at the end with a beautiful 500. From what I got from the error logs, it looks like an issue with notifications and an empty WC Session object ??

It looks to work properly now with PHP 8.1 but I applied a few patches.
Here the pastebin of what worked in my case :

Hope this might helps or inspires other devs as well, and give you more hints on the next release. ??

Kind regards,

Peter

Hello Pierre-Henri Lavigne,

Thank you for your valuable suggestions.

I truly appreciate your input and I’m sure that these recommendations will be incredibly helpful in resolving the issue.

Best regards.

@doublezed2 Thank you for getting back to me, I appreciate.

One point : I was in a hurry and I do lots of custom work. The error with the schedule manager can easily be triggered in a “standard” PHP 8.3 install I guess, about the second one, the error logs was pretty clear about WC()->session->get() undefined but who knows it could be coming from a third-party addon as well. I didn’t do deep testing

Not for granted info but a tiny extra check in a few “if / else scope” helpt a lot. ??
Wish you the best for the next releases, have a wonderful day and best regards,

Peter

I can’t speak to the wide variety of issues encountered by users here, but seeing a fix to dynamically declared properties would really be appreciated.

Hello @eclev91,

Sorry about the experience you’re having with the Braintree for WooCommerce Payment Gateway plugin. I just wanted to share that the plugin was recently updated. Could you please give it a spin and see if the issues persists?

If they do, please feel free to open a new topic so that we can be able to address the issue further.

Cheers.
