Hello,
I used DW Minion on last WordPress installation, and I updated my server for PHP8.
The theme makes my WordPress crash : “critical error”.
The error is :

Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function create_function() in /var/www/bonnesnotes/wp-content/themes/dw-minion2/inc/widgets.php:209
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/bonnesnotes/wp-content/themes/dw-minion2/functions.php(62): require()

#6 {main} 
thrown in /var/www/bonnesnotes/wp-content/themes/dw-minion2/inc/widgets.php on line 209

How could I fix that ? Thanks.
JR

This theme still seems broken with PHP8. Tested on a clean installation of WP and it fails with critical error.

Hi, the theme still does not work with PHP 8. When installing WordPress using Docker, there aren’t images anymore for WordPress 6.2 with PHP 7, so a page cannot be updated anymore with your theme.
I’d understand it if you would stop supporting a theme after 10 years. However, you write that “we are checking and will fix the issues as soon as possible”. Will there be any fixes, or is the “DW Minion” theme abandoned?
