 * We will see what needs to be changed for some of these PHP7.2 error checks. You
   can ignore these error checks below since the GitHub Compatibility script is 
   seeing BPS compatibility code that checks these things below also. In other words,
   the GitHub script is error checking BPS error checking code. 😉

 * Oops totally forgot to get back to you on this issue. I’m going to create a new
   forum topic on our forum site that explains everything in specific detail and
   then post the link to that forum topic here when that is completed. All of the
   PHP 7.2 error checks can be ignored. I will explain why in the new forum topic
   that I will be creating shortly. I think it is better to create that new forum
   topic on our forum site instead of in the BPS plugin support area because I expect
   that this same question will be asked repeatedly for several years to come. I
   can then just post a link to that new forum topic I will be creating instead 
   of explaining things repeatedly. 😉
