Also, can you bump up your PHP any higher than 7.3.x?

Good catch there @Steve. I missed that part about the php version.

I can ask my hosting provider. Should it work?

Do you have cPanel? Most cPanels allow for changing of php versions. And yes, that will work.

[SleePy]

Well it would be erroring on the return type, but I thought return types where in 7.1

[Arantor]

Return types are in 7.0, void and nullable came in 7.1, expansions to contravariant returns in 7.4.

But what I see now I can see the source... suggests a lack of the above user having PHP 7.0 at all.

I do, but I'm not sure how to do so.

Piece of cake. Log in to your cPanel and then scroll to the 'Software' section. Click on the 'Multi-PHP Manager' and it's pretty self-explanatory from there.

Thanks, seems easy. It's marked as "inherited" and it looks that I can up it to any version till 7.4. If I do that, is there any chance that the forum will crash or something else would happen?) Or is it smooth sailing?

[Steve]

No chance that I know of so it should be smooth sailing. There's always that dreadful minuscule chance something could go wrong so back everything up first.

[Мel]

Yeah, everything seems fine, yet there are some mistakes like

Code Select Expand

Call to a member function versionCheck() on nullI'll try to reinstall this mod a bit later.
Thanks.

Can't use admin panel with this error

Any advice please?

I could not reproduce the issue with 2.0.19 and PHP 7.4

[SleePy]

You can delete all related intergrate_* from the settings table and it will remove all hooks that power the customization.  If other customizations are using the hook, you need to delete it carefully, its a comma delimited list.

[Мel]

Not quite got it. Maybe there is an installation manual for this mod, so I can backtrace all the changes and remove it?

[Мel]

I restored the backup, everything seems fine, thanks.

[Steve]

Perfect example of why everyone should do backups, backups, backups before installing any mod or making any other changes to your forum.

It looks like the language files have not been added. Uninstall it, and then re-install it again.

[SleePy]

Agreed.  Looks like the language files did not deploy.  Your languages directory (/Themes/default/languages) needs to be writable.  You can check the StopForumSpam.english.php language file there.

[XVenomX]

Thanks 
For some reason the files were not extracted and the folder was writable so I did it manually, thanks a lot.

Running SMF 2.1.2, Installed version of this mod is 1.3.

I cannot find any options to either check a member or submit a member to the SFS database? We have an API key, and in the previous version of SMF, we could do the above.
