Not a bug Patch Requested

Patch Requested

Try to find and remove any instances of "intval" that you find in that template (You can leave the parenthesis in place)

I wish there was a nicer way we could fix this, it's sort of a catch-22, if we don't distribute it with the intval in place people get warnings in PHP 7.1, and if we do have it people get errors in XenForo 1.5.8 and below, the best case fix would be to upgrade XenForo to at least 1.5.9, or if The XF developers released a patch that could be applied to lower versions to add support for this function.

Easiest fix would be to just upgrade your XenForo to 1.5.9+ ?

Are you unable to upgrade right now?

I agree, you should just update XenForo.

I agree, you should just update XenForo.

I was just bringing this to the attention of the developers, they should know that a correction in their code would not effect customers that use other add-ons like Campaign manager. There also is other things going on.

Like the below error log, which when you remove it, just comes back. and the below rebuild which keeps trying to install, but keeps crashing, and you cannot keep it from trying to rebuild. then when you go to install or update another add-on, the below started again, and keeps happening.

so I patch may keep this from happening?

Thanks

older versions of xf in the same second digit series aka 1.5.x dont get patches, sometimes they will release a security fix for 1.4.x etc,

The add-on you're installing simply requires a newer version of XenForo. Ideally, this would be handled in the add-on's installer code so it would block you from attempting an install/upgrade if you didn't meet the requirements.

You may be able to try to import an older version of the add-on, though I'm not confident that would work as we don't generally allow downgrades. The only other fix from our point of view would be a XenForo upgrade. The add-on developer may have other workarounds (like mentioned the first post).

That would be hard.

There are 186 pages of add-ons, themes in the resources.

Thanks, I was just quoting what the add-on developer stated here:

Mike, I should added that I appreciate your pointing this out to me, so now I can contact the add-on developer and bring this point out to them for not having such a install version checker.

The add-on developer may have other workarounds (like mentioned the first post).

I think you may have read the first post wrong, it was the add-on developer who was sending me to you for a patch, because they have looked at the install ( from within my Admin panel ) and do not have a solution?.

At this point it seems like there is know way to get rid of those error messages from popping back up, or keep from having Xenforo trying to rebuild the install? everytime I try to update a different add-on.

so I will have no other alternative but to update you Xenforo.

But it would have been nice to be able to have a way to get ride of the error and rebuild notices.

What is wrong with updating XenForo?

What is wrong with updating XenForo?

Nothing, just that what Mike pointed out, is the issue at the moment.
So now I know, why this occurred and who's fault it was for not having added a version checker in there installer.
