Function split() is deprecated

[catherine]

Hello
I have tried deactivating my plugins and switched to 2012 and I have WP_debug set to false but I am seeing a loads of deprecated error messages on the event calendar page. Function split() is deprecated and on the settings dashboard Function call_user_method() is deprecated

Is there a newer, corrected version of the-events-calendar/lib/the-events-calendar.class.php
and /the-events-calendar/lib/tribe-field.class.php?

Hi Catherine, you’re right and split() – which is a standard PHP function – has been deprecated as of PHP 5.3.

It still works however and shouldn’t cause any problems; for production (live) sites what I’d recommend is turning off the display of errors.

(See this external article for more on this.)

I have tried using the code recommended in the article you linked to
error_reporting(0);
@ini_set(‘display_errors’, 0);
no joy.

Managed to sort it. My host php configuration was over-riding the config file and showing errors whether I wanted it or not. At least it is invisible now. Is there an update in the pipeline?

[Barry]

Yeah the way to adjust these settings varies according to the hosting environment – so it’s always worth seeking help from your web host.

Is there an update in the pipeline?

There is; though I don’t know if it will immediately address these issues we’re definitely aware of some PHP 5.3 and 5.4 compatibility problems and have it logged as something to review.
