PHP8 Incompatible Customizations

[Nitin Sanker]

Hello, 

on my backend i can see the system recommending me to use php8, when i set it my website is running slowly on front/back ends.

When i run the php8 checker i see many core files that seems to be not compatible yet, 

Can you advice please ?

Please could you provide me with information on what core files are showing to be incompatible, as that's not showing in your screenshot. There is only a 3rd party item showing there named "Club Enhancements"

Dangerous PHP Functions Enabled

Some functions are enabled on your server which have the potential to cause serious damage to your community or server. If you are in a shared hosting environment, some of these functions may bypass the restrictions which prevent one account on the server affecting another. Their presence also increases the amount of damage that could be caused if your AdminCP is compromised.

Since Invision Community, and most other web applications do not use these functions, we recommend disabling them on your server, at least within the directory that your community is installed in. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator and ask them to be added to the disable_functions PHP setting.

I am getting this warning message...what to do?

 

 

Your server does not meet our recommendations. This may prevent you from upgrading to future versions of Invision Community.

• You are running PHP version 7.4.30. While this version is compatible, future releases of our software will require version 8.0.0 or above. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for an upgrade.
• You do not have the Zip PHP extension loaded. Without this PHP extension, you will not be able to install CKEditor plugins or use the automatic upgrader in the AdminCP. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator for assistance installing this extension.
• You have one or more InnoDB tables that are using the `Compact` row format. This may limit the amount of data that can be stored within the table. We recommend changing it to 'Dynamic'. If you are not sure how to do this, you should contact your hosting provider or system administrator for assistance.

Please resolve these issues.

This is a problem with your third-party "Club Enhancements" application, you will either need to disable it or update it if a new version is available that fixes this issue.

All of these issues are something you will need to talk to your web host about since they relate to your server configuration.
