PHP / Re: any problems with PHP 8.3 and later?

« Last post by Starburst on December 12, 2025, 05:59:37 PM »

If you enable ionCube, PHP will give an error

Cannot load the ionCube PHP Loader – it was built with configuration API420220829,NTS, whereas running engine is API420230831,NTS

So if you need ionCube, you can find the fix at:

How to / Re: Clear alerts & notifications from CLI?

« Last post by Starburst on December 12, 2025, 05:56:31 PM »

Bravo! But if I'm not missing something, wouldn't it be easiest to empty the notifications like so:

Code: [Select]

echo '[]' > /usr/local/cwpsrv/htdocs/resources/admin/include/libs/notifications/notifications.json

@overseer I like it, simple and quick.

Just use PHP switcher, and select 8.3.25 with the modules you need/want.

WP 6.9 works fine with it.

Hi,

thank you very much for the answer...
Yes, this is the standard compilation of 8.3, but as far as I remember, something extra had to be done, something had to be added to some file and something else, were there instructions for that, please...

A python solution is to create the below file called clear_notices.py in /usr/local/cwpsrv/htdocs/resources/admin/include/libs/notifications (when executed it simply replaces the notification data which is stored in an array with an empty array)

Code: [Select]

import json
filename = 'notifications.json'
clear_notifications = []

try:
    with open(filename, 'w') as json_file:
        json.dump(clear_notifications, json_file, indent=4)
    print(f"Successfully edited '{filename}' to be an empty array [].")
except FileNotFoundError:
    print(f"Error: The file '{filename}' was not found.")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")
You can then run in via the terminal

Code: [Select]

cd /usr/local/cwpsrv/htdocs/resources/admin/include/libs/notifications
python3 clear_notices.py
You can also set up up cron job to run it as often as you wish

The below is the json file you'd need to alter to be an empty array, it houses the notifications. It can't be empty though, must always contain an empty array eg: [] - or the GUI will crash. There are JSON terminal tools like js & sponge etc that can edit the file if your brave. Alernatively you can execute a python script to overwrite the file contents with empty array

/usr/local/cwpsrv/htdocs/resources/admin/include/libs/notifications/notifications.json

Great, thanks!

And on the other side of the tracks, if you need Nginx 1.28 with brotli compression, this guide is a good one:
