Help on depreciated statement. 2

[Swi]

Anyone know how to resolve this error?

$galleryID = preg_replace("/[^0-9]/","",$attr['ids'])

I get this error.

Deprecated: Function create_function() is deprecated in /xxxx/wp-content/themes/hively/library/WPPostScript/Content/MediaGallery.php on line 28

Another example:

echo '<a href="tel:' . preg_replace("/[^0-9]/","",$organization->properties["contact"]["phone"]) . '">' . $organization->properties["contact"]["phone"] . '</a>';

Either downgrade from PHP 7.2+ or clean up the old code.

Hi

In addition to spamjim's suggestions, there is a dirty one : exclude [tt]E_DEPRECATED[/tt] from [tt]error_reporting[/tt].

[blue]bash-5.0$[/blue] php7.1 -d error_reporting='E_ALL' -r 'var_dump(create_function("",""));'
string(9) "\000lambda_1"

[blue]bash-5.0$[/blue] php7.2 -d error_reporting='E_ALL' -r 'var_dump(create_function("",""));'
PHP Deprecated:  Function create_function() is deprecated in Command line code on line 1
PHP Stack trace:
PHP   1. {main}() Command line code:0
string(9) "\000lambda_1"

[blue]bash-5.0$[/blue] php7.2 -d error_reporting='E_ALL [highlight]& ~E_DEPRECATED[/highlight]' -r 'var_dump(create_function("",""));'
string(9) "\000lambda_1"

Thanks to you both. Not a fan of downgrading so I guess clean it up or ignore the error. I inherited this 6 year old website. Looks like the theme needs an overhaul.

Being WordPress, you might simply resolve it by updating the core and the plugins.

Seems to be theme related. All plugins and WP core are up-to-date. The theme is littered with depreciated PHP. It is a custom theme someone write I assume... :-(
