    Hey there, i want update my server to PHP 8.1.
    I run a check with PHP Compatibility Checker and got following error.
    Will the plug in still work?

    The first one is a false positive and not relevant with PHP 8.1 in any case (since 8.1 > 7.3). Are you sure that PHP Compatibility Checker checked for the correct version of PHP?

    The warnings are false positives as well (the use of func_get_args in conjunction with modifying parameter values is intentional).

    You will get warnings with PHP 8.1 however, from the underyling library (PHP-Typography). The plugin should work fine, but PHP will complain (in your logs). I am currently working on an updated version requiring PHP 7.4+ that will be fully compatible with PHP 8.1.

    Hey Pepe,
    I see that the tool only checks till version PHP 7.3.
    Thanks for your response that the plugin will work fine!
