CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,
After clearing cache this morning my site (admin included) went blank. Entering at the server I put on errors, and it said: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected token "var" in /public_html/lib/classes/class.usertagoperations.inc.php(306) : eval()'d code on line 1

After reading on this forum I found that maybe this was one of my udt´s. I entered in the database, and deleted the three UDT I made (simple stuff, 2 of them working well for years now), but no difference. What could be the cause here?

CMSMS 2.2.19 running on php 8.2

Thanks!

I would restore the db to before you deleted the udt's (as now you'll get an error when it tries to find them, unless you also removed any references to them in your templates) and then try dropping PHP down to 8.1, or 7.4 if that doesn't work.

Thanks for your reply,
I restored the database and went back to 8.1, which got rid of some decrepated warnings, but the main problem is still there. I don´t think switching to 7.4 will change this (cant test it since cpanel only allows me to go back to 8.1), since I have seen several posts of people over the last decade that had the same problem. But clearing the cache again after that solved it. What a relief...

Sorry, I should have mentioned you should clear the cache after making any server changes such as the PHP version. I would hold off switching to PHP 8.2 until the core (and any of your third-party modules) supports it, and update or comment out your UDTs before upgrading too.
