- Blesta ships with a Source Guardian hotfix for PHP 8 support. We recommend updating your extensions to work with PHP 8.
Preparing for PHP 8
Reminder: We stopped using Html::ifset() and Html::_() for PHP 8 and recommend that you do the same. We have a hotfix for PHP 8.0 support that requires SourceGuardian. This hotfix now ships with Blesta, including in beta releases.
Domain Registrar Modules
Reminder: Registrar modules should define their type in config.json as: "type": "registrar",
Hotfix Notice
Hotfix Notice
Blesta no longer supports versions older than PHP 7.2, so there is no longer a need to ship hotfixes for those versions. A hotfix is included for PHP 8 which requires Source Guardian. As of version 5.5 we do not yet recommend PHP 8 for production use.
