PHP Deprecated message

Same here:

WordPress 4.4.2
Query Monitor 2.8.1
qtranslate-x 3.4.6.4

I had exactly the same messages. I just upgraded to php 7.0 so that could be the reason.

That IS exactly the reason. I just forgot to mention. I apologize.

I’d just like it to be fixed ??

Yes, it is a PHP 7 issue. So the question is how can it be fixed?

Hallo Alfons

Class Name constructors are deprecated and need to be replaced through php7 style constructors. Their constructors have the same name, as their class name.

pre PHP7 style constructor:

class Foo {
    function Foo(){
        //do stuff
    }
}

PHP7 style constructors, though, are named __construct:

class Foo {
    function __construct(){
        //do stuff
    }
}

The thing is, this should be done by the plugin developer.

Take care

Thanks Marco,
it doesn’t look like the plugin developer offers any support through this forum. Last update 4 months ago, so I guess it is up to us to fix it.

You’re welcome.

Give him some time.

As a developer who offers free service or donation ware in some cases, I know, that financial support, even a small donation isn’t something a lot of people do. In fact, I haven’t yet for this plugin. Shame on me. A lot of those people just nag and complain, some even get angry.

So the motivation lacks understandably, to put energy, time and afford in something like this, which might be the byproduct of need, the developer had for himself.

What you or everyone who is dependent or impatient can do (a little technical skill and courage provided), is to cautiously search and replace those constructors.

Best wishes

Marco

Sure, I usually buy “pro” version of plugins where possible to also support the developer.
In the meantime I just replace those constructors myself.

Looks like the developer is aware of it.
