Error - PHP 8.0

Hi there,

There is no # character on that line: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/3.0.2/inc/structure/post-meta.php#L460

Has the file been altered at all?

Let me know :)

Hi Tom,

Happy New Year!

Please see here and also the private box

These errors appear only for my french archive pages. Could it be conflicting with some CSS or hook?

Thanks
Kumar

Additional info to the above:

Hi Tom,

When I downgraded to 7.4 to my staging site - the french archives seem to work okay.

See url in private box.

Thanks
Kumar

There was some broken HTML in your private replies, so I had to remove them.

However, from what I saw, they were still saying something about line 460.

That line is compatible with PHP 8.0 - it's a core WordPress function.

Has the file on your end been altered at all?

I don't think we have altered any file as far as I know.

It makes me wonder if it is a hack or something? I do have a GP child theme

Appreciate any guidance on this.

Regards
Kumar

Does your line 460 of the following file match the core file?: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/3.0.2/inc/structure/post-meta.php#L460

I think it looks the same

I'm not sure what the error would be there then, as there is no # character on that line or in the core function that it's referencing: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/the_title_attribute/

I do have a test site using PHP8 and I'm not getting any errors: http://testingm.kinsta.cloud/

Not sure where the problem is.

I have reverted back to php 7.4 and it has resolved the issue.

Thanks
Kumar

We'll continue testing on our end.

On your end, it may be worth testing a fresh install on a PHP 8 install to see if you run into the same issue.

Hi Tom,

I have tried to re-install WordPress core on staging, but that didn't help either.

Changed to the 2021 default theme and the archive page loaded but when I re-activated GP - this came back.

Not sure, something surely up with this. (it looks like if the theme is expecting something else but somehow receives a # instead)

Would you mind looking into this for us?

That username seems to have 2FA activated - can we deactivate that for now?

Hi Tom

Please try now.

Thanks
K

Does it still happen if you activate the parent theme instead of the child theme?
