moving version 4.7.3 from php 7.4.33 to 8.5.7 gives an error

textpattern version 4.7.3

hello – first time on this forum.

i just upgraded my php version from 7.4.33 to 8.5.7 and now see the following error:

<pre>
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot use positional argument after named argument in ____/textpattern/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php:2189 Stack trace: #0 ___/textpattern/textpattern/vendors/Textpattern/Admin/Theme.php(160): pluggable_ui() #1 ____/textpattern/textpattern/index.php(181): Textpattern\Admin\Theme::init() #2 {main} thrown in ____/textpattern/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php on line 2189
</pre>

the code referenced is here:
<pre>

$ui = call_user_func_array(‘callback_event’, array( ‘event’ => $event, ‘step’ => $element, ‘pre’ => (string) $default === ‘’ ? 0 : array(0, 0), ) + $argv);

</pre>

suggestions?

Welcome here!

Textpattern 4.7.x is not compatible with PHP 8.3-8.5. You’ll need to upgrade to Texpattern 4.9 for PHP 8.5 support.

Your best bet is downgrade back to your original PHP version, upgrade your Textpattern install to the most recent version, verify all is working and then upgrade to the latest version of PHP.

(if in the process of upgrading to the latest Textpattern version you have some issues, feel free to ask questions here).
