May be, may be not, but someone has to try and see whether it is.

No. My host has something like its own panel in which I can set, change or select and deselect a lot of things.

If your provider will end up offering PHP 8.1, try to update to Elkarte 1.1.9 and use PHP 8.2.
I'm not sure Elkarte 1.1.9 is fully compatible with PHP 8.3 or greater
Regarding on how to change PHP version, are you using cpanel or any other panel? If so which one? Otherwise ask your host.

My host does not yet offer PHP 8.4.
From next year, it will only be 8.2 and 8.3 for the time being.

You can even try php8.4 too if you are able to do that with your hosting. And yes, please report whatever version of php you are using, especially when there is any problem.

That may be the reason.
Unless someone knows another reason, I will (finally) upgrade to at least 1.1.9 in the next few days.
I will report later on whether the PHP update worked.

Hi Mrs Chaos I'm a newbie indeed in this matters, but if I were you I would firstly upgrade from elkarte 1.1.8 to elkarte 1.1.9 and after that I would change from php 8.2 to 8.3 .

Anyway just for your info my provider does not force me changing my php version... some years ago i've changed my web/php provider for this very reason.

Support / How to change the PHP version in the forum?

Last post by Mrs. Chaos - December 05, 2024, 04:02:04 pm

Hello everyone,

I'm currently still using PHP version 8.1 for the forum, but my webspace hoster will soon switch off 8.1 and 8.2.
Now I'm trying to change my forum to 8.3, but it's not working. If I just change the version in my hoster's settings, the forum “disappears” from the net (empty page), so I can no longer access the administration center.
I had already changed from 8.0 to 8.1 a long time ago, but I can't remember how I did it ...
Can someone please write in which order I have to do what and where so that the change to 8.3 works?

Greetings to all.

@Cate sent the following server information to me in a PM..

Version Information:
This version: ElkArte 1.1.9
Current version: 1.1.9
GD version: bundled (2.1.0 compatible)
Imagick version: ImageMagick 6.9.10-68 Q16 x86_64 2024-04-16 https://imagemagick.org: <https://imagemagick.org/>
MySQL version: 5.7.23-23
Alternative PHP Cache: 5.1.22
Zend OPcache: 8.2.18
PHP: 8.2.18 (litespeed)
Server version: Apache
Version Information: Linux just2013.justhost.com 4.19.286-203.ELK.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jun 14 04:33:55 CDT 2023 x86_64

If Cate is still having issues with this, the above information may provide a clue

My first troubleshooting suggestion would be to see if the PHP version can be rolled back to 7.x and see if things then play nice..
