Thanks in advance for this release that I will update to soon, and for the diligence and commitment to keep Txp alive.

Re: Feedback: Textpattern CMS 4.8.8 released
Upon a fresh install of 4.8.8 i get a config.php, which lacks a
?>
at the end of it. Just noticed.
Like this
<?php $txpcfg['db'] = 'database'; $txpcfg['user'] = 'user'; $txpcfg['pass'] = 'password'; $txpcfg['host'] = 'localhost'; $txpcfg['table_prefix'] = ''; $txpcfg['txpath'] = '/home/root/www/domain.com/textpattern'; $txpcfg['dbcharset'] = 'utf8mb4'; // For more customization options, please consult config-dist.php file.

That’s by design. We changed it a while back so that if you add extra stuff to config.php it’s easier to document: we can just say “add it to the end of your config.php file” :)

Officially, 4.8.8 only covers PHP to version 8.1. Unofficially, I have had it working mostly OK with PHP 8.2.
Textpattern 4.9.0 is scheduled for release after PHP 8.5.0 is released. Realistically, this means December 2025 (in an ideal situation) if there are no huge changes in the final stages of release candidates.
At this time, the General Availability release of PHP 8.5.0 is scheduled for November 20 2025. This date is two days after the release of the code on Github. I typically collect & compile the release code on Tuesday, and the release is made public two days later on Thursday. At this time, there is 1 further Release Candidate scheduled, then we’re ready for General Availability on November 20 2025.
At this time, there are no further scheduled Beta releases for Textpattern 4.9.0. At this time, there are no plans for a Release Candidate – we are targeting a General Availability release.
PHP 8.1 isn’t going to disappear from hosting organisations any time soon. I say that with some personal demons since I do not like running publicly-visible software on unsupported libraries. This forum itself is affected by the end of support for PHP 8.1 as the forum software will not run properly on PHP 8.2 or later.
