 Is weeblrAMP php7+ compatible? Running the WPEngine PHP Compatibility Checker throws 3 warnings and 1 error.

FILE: wp-content/plugins/weeblramp/vendor/weeblr/wblib/vendor/w-shadow/vendor/ParsedownLegacy.php
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

22 | WARNING | INI directive 'mbstring.internal_encoding' is deprecated since PHP 5.6
23 | WARNING | INI directive 'mbstring.http_input' is deprecated since PHP 5.6
24 | WARNING | INI directive 'mbstring.http_output' is deprecated since PHP 5.6

Can this error be safely ignored? Or is it legitimate?

Also, are the warnings from backwards compatibility functions? The plugin states "This tool cannot detect unused code paths that might be used for backwards compatibility, potentially showing false positives." and I've seen some similar errors in other plugins, so same question, safe to ignore?

Thanks!

Hi

There is strictly no issue for PHP 7 compatibility, these warnings and specifically the error can be ignored.
We will update to more recent libraries when available, but the ParseDown Legacy lib is not used by weeblrAMP, it's just part of another library that we use.

Best regards
