We are not seeing any issues with general usage ourselves. * – Cais. * [twykr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/twykr/) * (@twykr) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-7328006) * Hi Cais – * I’ve setup a fresh / clean Ubuntu 16.04 LTS box for testing my Photocrati / NextGen setup before I upgrade my actual hosting server, and there are plenty of errors. The primary one for NextGen Gallery is: * Deprecated: Non-static method NextGEN_Gallery_Pro::load_product() should not be called statically in /-{snip path}-/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 525 * And the same issue shows up separately on individual gallery pages (separate example of the same type of deprecated code problems): * Deprecated: Non-static method M_NextGen_Pro_Ecommerce::get_checkout_page_url() should not be called statically in /-{snip path}-/wp-content/plugins/nextgen- gallery-pro/modules/ecommerce/module.nextgen_pro_ecommerce.php on line 705 * (Those are without Photocrati by the way, which is completely broken on PHP7 – and I realize a wholly separate issue). * I would note that with the latest release (v 2.1.43), I am now able to see the individual images for the galleries load (they didn’t previously) and get the lightbox functionality to trigger – although positioning is pretty off… but that I can fix with CSS adjustments if necessary. * twykr. * [twykr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/twykr/) * (@twykr) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-7328007) * Addendum / update: * Apologies – I realized this morning that, after the last update, the issue is with NextGen Pro and not with NextGen Gallery itself. * I am now able to get it to run without the Pro enabled, although I have to reconfigure all of my galleries to get that to work… * Sorry! * Plugin Contributor [photocrati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/photocrati/) * (@photocrati) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-7328008) * [@twykr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/twykr/) – Please contact our support team directly with these PHP7 concerns in NextGEN Pro via your member’s area at [https://imagely.com/account/](https://imagely.com/account/) * We’ll still want to look into those as needed. * Thanks! * – Cais. * [ossser](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ossser/) * (@ossser) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-8841919) * Hi Cais, * As at today, 24/02/2017 .Is Nextgen gallery compatible with PHP7 ? * Ossser. * Plugin Contributor [photocrati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/photocrati/) * (@photocrati) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-8845047) * [@ossser](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ossser/) – We do not have any reports of NextGEN Gallery not working with PHP 7.0.x, if you are seeing something specific you would like to report please start your own topic so we can try to help you with your specific issue on your specific site. * See [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/forum-welcome/#post-in-the-best-place](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/forum-welcome/#post-in-the-best-place) * Thanks! * – Cais. * [coolman111](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coolman111/) * (@coolman111) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-compatible-with-php7/#post-8850673) * [@photocrati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/photocrati/) – Hi, I’m new to WordPress and I have encountered a problem with NextGEN Gallery and PHP 7.1.1. Some messages come up on the site background, always the same, repeated like this: Warning: Parameter 2 to M_DataMapper::set_custom_wp_query_where() expected to be a reference, value given in C:\xampp\htdocs\site1\wp-includes\class-wp- hook.php on line 298 * When I deactivate NextGEN Gallery, the site is normal. On another server with PHP 5.x, NextGEN Gallery works without Warnings. My developement configuration is: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 WordPress 4.7.2 – Theme Twenty Fifteeen – NextGEN Gallery 2.1.79 running on XAMPP for Windows 7.1.1 (Control Center 3.2.2) – with Apache 2.4.25 – MySQL (MariaDB 10.1.21) – PHP 7.1.1 * Can you help? PS: When you google the message text, you can find several websites running with exact the same warnings on the background area. Thanks.
