 * Hello,
 * Please help me with this issue: I cannot update my theme and I cannot update 
   php version (to php8), because currently, the theme does not support it.
 * If I do not make the updates, the plugins and everything else do not work properly
   anymore.
 * Thank you,
    Anda

 * Hello andacofaru,
 * Can you share the error message you get while updating the theme?
 * We have checked our theme with php 8.0.8 and its working completely fine. Please
   get support with the server team to get update your php version without any issue.
 * Regards,

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the answer!
 * I haven’t tried yet, but when the server team support suggested me that I should
   update my php version to 8, they also mentioned that from what they’ve checked,
   my theme does not have the proper actualisation in order to support this version.
 * Based on you explanation above, I will than update it.
 * Thanks again!

 * The size of the page was reduced, as per mobile and everything else disappeared.
   And below appeared: this site has a critical error.
    So I moved back to previous
   version again.

 * You were right, the theme works just perfect! The plugins were the problem after
   all
