    Hello,

    Unfortunately, I had to update the PHP version from 7.4 to 8.0+ because my hoster discontinued support. Various errors are now occurring in several places. Is the theme fully compatible with PHP 8+? Unfortunately, I can no longer use PHP 7.4.

    The changes made in the theme options can no longer be saved. I have recorded a video with the errors that have occurred.

    In addition, the admin panel has become very slow. I suspect that this is caused by the PHP errors in the background.

    You can find my access data in the private area. I have already carried out all the usual troubleshooting measures (switch zu parent theme and deactivate all plugin) based on your last recommendation without success.

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Good day,

    I have now tried everything suggested without success.

    -Tried all PHP versions from 8.0 to 8.4.
    – all measures from the two links
    – the hoster has checked his server and found no problem on their side.
    – Deactivated all plugins except core and theme
    – Tried theme without child theme.

    Unfortunately the post error is still displayed. Could you please look at it again. I also have the same error as in the following ticket:

    I don’t know if it is related.
