PHP 8 Support

  • First of all, thank you for the simple but great plugin.

    The plugin works perfectly on my server running PHP 7.
    However, I tested it on PHP 8 and the buttons always return “0”.

    Please let me know if it’s compatible with PHP 8.

    I have not looked into it. Not sure if we need to change anything for PHP 8.

    Do you have access to logs? Do you see any error or warning?

    Thanks for the fast response.

    I checked my access logs, but couldn’t find any mention of the thumb rating plugin.

    Oddly enough, displaying top ratings using the shortcode “[thumbs_rating_top]” works just fine.

    However, the shortcode “[thumbs-rating-buttons]” always displays zero for both up and down votes.

    If anyone else is running PHP 8 please feel free to chime in.

    Best,

    Do you have a cache plugin installed and active on the site?

    I use “WP Super Cache”, but I’ve tested with and without. The results are the same.

    I’ll conduct a second round of testing to see if there’s any conflict with other plugins.

    Cache plugins will not work with this plugin.

    There might be other voting plugins that works, but this one no. Because the unique token that is needed for the AJAX calls to the backend get cached and WordPress rejects the calls.
