Hi,
Are all your Joomla templates PHP8 ready at this time? If not, when will we find updated templates for PHP 8.0 or 8.1?

Hi,
Apology for your experience with our product. No sorry not all of the templates are ready at this time. Helix Ultimate is PHP8 ready . For other templates it may take some time. Our team is working on that. Please allow us some time. It will be also ready soon.
-Regards.

Is it really only Helix Ultimate at this time? Most ISPs are now going to PHP8 as PHP7 has end of service, what are your plans on updating templates to be ready for this?
I have appr. 30 sites that might go down if I don't have control on the template and 3rd party ecxtensions beeing ready for PHP8... And then I have the upgrade to Joomla 4 to worry about..
Best regards,

You can use it but it is still not ready for PHP8.

Any information on when it will be?

Sorry it is not fixed yet. But it will be updated soon.

As PHP8 will be taken into use very soon on many web servers, this issue will be a problem for many live sites... Now would be a good time for a solution where customers could choose a new and upgraded template that supports both Joomla 4 and PHP 8!

Our team is working templates will be updated very soon.

Hi again, I have found that your template Travelia works fine on PHP8, but not when I try to log on using the Admin-link on the bottom of https://flr.no.
Could we expect an update any time soon so that this template will work fine on PHP 8?
Regds,

The same issue is a problem with the Helix 3 template:
htmlspecialchars(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, stdClass given
Happens when going to PHP8, site works fine with a standard Joomla template.. It's starting to be a problem that so many templates doesn't handle PHP 8 - which most ISPs is going to these dayse..
