Featured articles vanish under PHP 8

Asked by Jens Funk 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

Hello Joomshaper, on my Sites I have to switch to PHP 8 on next Monday. Unfortunately in this case the featured articles vanish from the frontpages. I'm with Joomla 3.10.11, PHP 7.4.33, SPPBP 3.8.9, Helix and Educon.
Do you have any advice?
Best, Jens

Hello again, I played around with the settings and, whoppee. The old settings doesn't work with php8. It is not possible using this addon anymore with the option "all categories". If I choose a special one, it works. So far.

Best, Jens!

Hello Joomshaper, I would really appreciate your advice one more time. Since PHP 8 my featured articles vanished from the frontpages of my websites. Can you help me out?

Hello Jens Funk

Apology for the inconvenience. Are the featured articles written with SP Page Builder? Educon is not yet compatible with PHP 8 and might face issues. But I think the issue is not related with template.

Best regards

Hello Ofi Khan, yes you are right. This problem arises also on a website without Educon. But in all cases with SPPBP 3.8.9, Joomla 3.10.11 and under PHP 8. In one case there is Helix Ultimate Framework 2.0.11 and in another one Helix3 Framework 3.0.2.

Now we face the next weekend with no solution. I posted this problem first time three month ago. Now providers switch to php 8. What are you going to do?

Best, Jens
