 * Hello,
 * I have the same warning. Please remove the usage of get_currentuserinfo() which
   is deprecated in WordPress 4.5.
 * Thanks a lot in advance!

 * Hello Fabio Marzocca
 * Seems the developer is quite busy, even many people thinking that the plugin 
   is abandoned, but later from an article from wptavern ([http://wptavern.com/frederick-townes-confirms-w3-total-cache-is-not-abandoned](http://wptavern.com/frederick-townes-confirms-w3-total-cache-is-not-abandoned))
   that it’s not. I hope the developer will come back with a fix and an updated 
   plugin, very soon.
 * Cheers
    Ash

 * Hi Ash,
 * I hope so… also because – in the time being – WP released another versio (4.6)!

 * [@fabio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabio/) … if you’re not too afraid
   of looking at code its not that hard to keep this plugin running smoothly. Mine
   is still humming along. Yes WP just released 4.6 and w3tc is still ticking just
   fine. Of course, assuming you’ve applied the minimum necessary patches along 
   the way 🙂
 * Alternatively, there’s always [this](https://github.com/szepeviktor/fix-w3tc/releases)
   for non-coders.

 * [@kimberly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kimberly/)… yes, I’m still running
   the plugin (apparently with no problems) but I am also concerned about its future.

 * [@fabio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabio/), yeah lots of users are 
   concerned about that. Personally I don’t want to move to another plugin and this
   plugin serves me very well. I believe most of the users are thinking in this 
   way.
 * We just hope Frederick will manage some time to make the plugin compatible with
   WP 4.6 and php 7. On the other hand Kimberly and some other kind members are 
   really doing an awesome job to manage an alternative repo, thanks!
 * Have a good day!
 * Cheers
    Ash
