Unable to update to PHP 8.2

[plumcreek]

All 22 of my sites are on WP Engine, all of them with Xtreme, all updated just fine except one, http://www.rushriverproduce.com. I have stripped the site to almost nothing, and today looked at the logs and WPE support confirms it’s the plugin. Help?

Xtreme 6.3, plugins Xtreme plus 1.2.2, Xtreme Support 6.3.1 (my apologies for including the stats twice)

[plumcreek]

Any more thoughts? This has to be upgraded by the end of the month. Thanks!

[Weaver]

Weaver Xtreme Plus 1.2.2 is VERY old.

It is not possible to update that version to be compatible with PHP 8.2.

I would suggest disabling the Plus plugin to see if that stops the error messages, and then either updating to the latest version (6.2), or working around whatever Plus features were available on the site.

The issue is apparently in the social shortcode, so you could find some alternative. That particular shortcode has never been updated to the most recent social content providers, so you might want to find an alternative plugin for social links. Not using the short code should avoid the error.

[plumcreek]

I’ve been putting it on sites for so long because I thought it was required. LOL. That was it, thank you.
