Hello,

I've been taking a bit of a look at XenForo as a potential platform for a project.  However, I notice that XF requires that certain potentially problematic core PHP functions be enabled.  I would be running it on a VPS with several other sites, some of which have CMS software which requires these functions be disabled.  The only way around this as far as I can see would be to assign XF a different version of PHP (say, 7.3 instead of 7.4) with core functions enabled.

I'm just wondering about the reality on the ground: does disabling these core functions really lead to significant problems in common usage?

Thanks!
