Types and Ubermenu Plugins on PHP 8.1

NCP on PHP 8.1

January 10, 2023

The Types plugin no longer works with PHP 8.1 as we found out yesterday when we updated NCP to work with PHP 8.1. We replaced that plugin with Custom Post Type UI which is our recommended post type plugin these days.

The Ubermenu plugin that we originally used for NCP also had to be replaced because Ubermenu is now a paid plugin. We replaced Ubermenu with WP Mega Menu and styled the new plugin to match existing design.

We also thought it was appropriate to hide the front page loading animation when you tap on it.

The WordPress Core Automatic Update Feature was also disabled in order to preserve the longevity of this site.

Make sure to accommodate your website to work with the all new PHP 8.1. You do not want to have to redesign your site when your server discontinues PHP 7.3.
