 * When switching to the site in PHP 8, an error occurs and the site is disabled.
   Please correct it.

 * Hi,
    You can change the file: `caldera-forms/vendor/symfony/polyfill-mbstring/
   bootstrap.php` by the one from the polyfill that corresponds to your PHP version.
   I am using PHP 8.0 and the one from php80 worked for me.

 * Hi,
 * Having the same issue, but noticed this on the description of this plugin!
 * > Description
   >  Caldera Forms will be sunset/retired on 31 Dec 2021. Security,
   > WordPress compatibility, and maintenance updates will continue until that time.
   > To find out what this means for you and your forms, please read the full initial
   > update on the CalderaForms.com blog, and stay tuned there for future updates.
 * This will probably no longer get fixed so we need to go use another contact form
   plugin I am afraid.
