Support for php 7.1

#1

When will this plugin support php 7.1? There has been some discussing, but I don’t see any timelines. Please advise.

Thanks

are you sure that this problem is related to s2member? I’m rare to defend s2member but I cannot notice any new problems related to running with php 7.2 (been using 7.1 also for a year - but upgraded to 7.2 a couple of months ago).

Hi, thanks for your reply. So essentially, I moved a site over to siteground. They have a plugin that detected that I am not on php 7.2. I think I’m on 5.6. So they have this plugin that analyzes your existing plugins to see if they are compatible with php 7.2.

So the errors are not coming from the s2member plugin itself, they can coming from a report that shows the issues if you upgrade to php 7.2

See screen shot attached.

Those plugins are not really showing you if something will really work or not. There is much more rather outdated stuff in the codebase - 95% of s2member code is minimum 7-8 years old, rather 10 years - and that does cause problems here and there - but PHP 7.1/7.2 changes nothing in this regard.

OK. I’ll try it out and see how it goes. Thanks for your reply.
