 * Been waiting to be able to utilize NextGen again since shut down with the latest
   2.2.16-8 versions when using PHP 7+. Now I see in [https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=75573](https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=75573)
   that a PHP fix is scheduled for Jan 4th. Then we will likely need to wait for
   that fixed PHP version to become available at our hosts. Will a workaround NextGen
   version be available to safely use PHP 7+ before the scheduled PHP fix? Or do
   other options exist besides reverting to PHP 5.xx to use this gallery again while
   waiting for the PHP fix?

 * [@labres](https://wordpress.org/support/users/labres/) We’ve been working on 
   this and finally have a work around. This copy of NextGEN 2.2.20 should run with
   any version of PHP (including the bugged versions: 7.0.26, 7.1.12, 7.2RC6, and
   7.2.0). Feel free to give it a try and let us know if you have issues.

 * We’d like to get a few confirmations before we release it officially.

 * NextGEN 2.2.20 was installed on 2 multisites today. It is working well during
   initial testing. We use the plugin mostly in the NextGEN Basic Thumbnails mode.
   The PHP version is 7.0.26.
    Thanks very much for your support.
