mybb and PhP 8.0

[Shark007]

I do not see any error.
The user just never receives the email.
When I change the PHP version back to 7.4, all is OK once again.

BTW, I am using iAndrew's current igame23 theme (free version)

You'd probably need to check the PHP configuration there then, the PHP mail function hasn't changed since PHP 7.2 so there should be no compatibility issues here, however you may have different php.ini settings between the two versions.

I have used cPanel to browse files but do not see php.ini anywhere.

It probably isn't in the file system, you can edit PHP settings within cPanel.

Do this test: https://docs.mybb.com/1.8/faq/mail/

If this works on 7.4 but not 8.0, then it rules out MyBB and confirms a PHP configuration issue.

I get 'Mail was sent by PHP' (in the email received - This is a mailing test to see if PHP mail works.)
with 7.4 and also after setting PHP to 8.1

It still is an issue with the forum registration process.
That only works with 7.4

In the FAQ - I am trying Host Restrictions portion now...
follow up soon

---

The FAQ says to find mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
it does not exist - closest I can find is
my_mail($email['mailto'], $email['subject'], $email['message'], $email['mailfrom'], "", $email['headers'], true);

and I pasted this, ini_set("sendmail_from", "[email protected]"); above it.
PHP 8.1 still does not send forum registration authentication. While using 7.4 it still works as expexted.

---

any other idea's for me to move beyond PHP 7.4 other than changing to Admin authentication?

I upgraded to version 1.8.33
Still having problems with php 8 & 8.1

Hi, I upgraded my PhP website today from PhP 7.4 to PhP 8.0, 8.1 or 8.2. After the whole process, I get the errors below.
Also, I can't access any thread with PhP 8.
If I go back to PhP7.4, everything works perfectly again.

Does anyone know what causes this problem or how to fix it?
Thank you very much.
