uasort deprecated

[arfa]

I am looking at a pre php8 plugin so have been using a php7 test setup. I switch back to -8 and set debug to TRUE and am now getting:

Deprecated: uasort(): Returning bool from comparison function is deprecated, return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero in ...\bl-kernel\pages.class.php on line 419

I have reset debug to FALSE, deleted browser history, restarted the browser, restarted my PC - but still the error persists and breaks admin. I can't even create a new page.

When I rem line 419 - it seems to work OK but... this is only with limited testing.

I can't imagine that this deprecation is new knowledge.
What say you?

thx - kusalo

PS edit - a bit more testing... with the line remmed I can add a new page but it doesn't show on home.php. It is all there (content: pages, database) but is not properly sorted - rem'd or not. If I load the full URL it is displayed. Hmmmm

Which version of Bludit do you use?

Which plugin do you mean?

If I load the full URL it is displayed.

What do you mean with "full URL"?

Which plugin do you mean?

https://plugins.bludit.com/plugin/php-shortcodes
and this is in relation to:
viewtopic.php?t=2947&start=10

What do you mean with "full URL"?

sorry - the full URL "with slug" - the full-direct link to the page.

I have given more time to this.
1 - There are mixed messages regarding this (supposed) function deprecation in -8. The bottom line is that the PHP manual
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.uasort.php
makes no mention of it. A bit confusing and where/why does the error msg appear on my site?

2 - I see now I was working under a basic assumption that bludit reads the metadata.json when a plugin is added to the bl-plugins folder BUT... this seems to be *wrong* and that if there is bad code in the plugin deactivating the plugin is not enough - it needs to be removed/deleted from the bl-plugins folder. I did this and... no error msg.

So, I am not sure if this thread adds anything to the whole or is just a part of my learning curve? I am back on track and moving forward.
