What exactly doesn’t work when using php 8.1?

[SJ77]

Hi

I see the warning that php 8.0 should be used because 8.1 isn’t supported. But I was curious, what exactly won’t be working if I stay on 8.1?

 Thank you

It is. 8.2 isn’t.

Ok so 8.1 is ok? Weird that the ACP advises me to downgrade.

Which version are you using?

on my test site, the latest version of IPB (not beta) with php8.1

My live board is 8.1. No warn in ACP, no error.

Show a screenshot of that warning… may help to identify the issue.

This bulletin is for versions older than 4.7.0, it should self-dismiss soon since you've recently upgraded.

So, what about PHP 8.2?

It’s not supported yet. Any issues you encounter while running it will result in support telling you to switch to 8.0/8.1.

Right, but does anyone know of any specific issues they have encountered?

Yes - your site won't load, instead displaying a white page.
