    Hi there

    As of today, are GeneratePress and GP Premium fully compatible with PHP 8.1 or what is the current status?

    Thanks a lot
    Michael

    Hi there,

    Hard to put a figure on it but i would say 99.99%.

    Reason i say that, is our compatibility is based on coding to WP Standards. So when WP works fine with PHP 8.1 so should GP.
    But WP 6.1 introduced a lot of changes, which included some code deprecations as well as some oversights in what output we expect from their code.

    For example – see here:

    https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/deprecated-code-for-php-8-1/#post-2412066

    We have had a couple of users report server log warnings ( not errors and no critical errors ) – and in most of these cases it is where a WP function isn’t returning whats expected. So that results in us having to do a little patchwork.

    For me personally, i have been running 8.1 on several sites.
    And the only ones i haven’t switched are due to plugins that just are not compatible.

    Hi there,

    Thanks David – waiting for GravityForms and Yoast SEO to be compatible as well.
