The "confirm my choices" link seems to do nothing (i.e. no choices displayed)?

I can no longer view my posts that were responded to. Clicking on the link brings me to a page with just "Error: Undefined constant "buddylist" in ..../includes/class_userprofile.php on line 797"

So the error that pops up most of the time is "Error: Call to undefined function each() in /usr/share/pear/Text/Diff/Engine/native.php on line 195".

And this is what the manual on php.net says:

each

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)

each — Return the current key and value pair from an array and advance the array cursor

Warning This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 7.2.0, and REMOVED as of PHP 8.0.0. Relying on this function is highly discouraged.

Hello again, everyone!

As we have resolved most of the largest issues (I would consider subscription emails and wikipost editing to be the major outstanding ones) and I have about a dozen other sites to monitor that underwent the same changes as FlyerTalk did, I must request that you please answer these questions in your future reports (you can just copy/paste if you want and I'll put it in the wikipost). If you do not provide these, I will not be responding or reporting your issue to our tech team.

Desktop or mobile?
Reproduced in multiple browsers? Which do/don’t work (we at least need to know the initial browser)?
Steps to reproduce the issue
Reproduced on incognito mode/private window?
When did this problem start?
(If you're just confirming that you're also having the issue, we'll just need your device type and browser)

And that explains why it's broken. Sucks when this sort of thing happens as you have to write a function to mimic what was built into the language or you have to redo the source code. PITA either way...

You know what might be great? Some sort of permanent form linked to at the bottom since you pretty much need this info any time there's a technical glitch. Would make it a bit easier since then it would be like zendesk support tickets vs looking for posts in a forum.

I was thinking of suggesting that he add those questions as a wiki post to every thread in this subforum, but your idea is much better.

A lot of websites/companies use some sort of help ticket system for their website inquiries so they can route and respond to the requests better. Usually they're larger companies, and Internet Brands is actually pretty huge because they pretty much own half of the forums on the Internet, so it would probably be quite useful across all their properties. (The other half is owned by Vertical Scope--I've actually met VPs of both companies at a forum conference and they're both really great guys and super knowledgeable).

Found something else broken (but may have been broken before php 8)--the 'Airport Code Lookup' at the bottom of the page. Seems to crash and even dump code out onto the page. :eek: Might just be missing a bracket because even before pressing submit there seems to be a piece of html at the end of the first line.

Confirming ACL is broken for me too. Win10x64 on desktop in Firefox 107. Same in Opera 93.0.4585.37/Chromium version:107.0.5304.122. Error happens after entering the airport code and clicking Submit. Same in private tab.

That's not even PHP code. That's a Perl CGI! Like how you would write a web back end over 25 years ago...

In this case almost 23 years!

I can't really do a form, since vBulletin doesn't work that way, but I did sticky this to this forum a bit over a month ago:
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tech...ort-issue.html

We use Jira internally, but that's what I report on, so it's sort of like... I make the tickets for everyone.

ACL has been broken and not related. The external site we were using broke. We're going to put together our own when we've patched up the bugs we have now
