Current official line on use of <txp:php>

Hi, developers and people much smarter than me.
I recently asked a question around the subject of using php (the Textpattern tag, not the language) in Textpattern.

My understanding was that the php tag is deprecated as it throws up a message to that effect whenever I use it in Testing mode. Jukka has corrected me and although I’m pleased php isn’t currently deprecated, it would be great to have some official clarification on its status.

Thank you in advance.

The php tag is not deprecated, and is not going to be deprecated in the seeable future. There is no deprecation message in place for it either.

What you may be seeing is an error caused by the code wrapped in the tag, or depending on the Textpattern version, the warning could be about a raw PHP block (<?php ?>) which were deprecated ages a go, and are no longer with us.

Mea culpa – I had my wires crossed after a late night.

Thanks again for the clarification, Jukka.
