php 5.3.0 spamblock plugin warnings

[Don Chambers]

Have not really paid attention to any logs in very long time, but I was trying to set up a new s9y site today and saw these warnings in the error logs:

[22-Oct-2009 20:29:13] PHP Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /home/www/site/htdocs/include/plugin_api.inc.php on line 560

I am having problems with this site, and think they are not related to the above warnings or my php version, but is anyone successfully running s9y with php 5.3.0, and if so, what version of s9y? I am trying to install 1.4.1.

Hi!

Yes this is PHP 5.3.0. related and you must upgrade to s9y 1.5, see blog.s9y.org - 1.4.1 is not fully compatible with a vanilla PHP 5.3. because of its error reporting.

Yeah, I found that out the hard way! I thought I had read something about 5.3.0 here on the forum, but could not find anything so I just updated my trunk copy from svn and read the NEWS..

When do you think 1.5 will be finalized? I don't want to upgrade some sites to beta 2 just to upgrade them again to the full 1.5.

Hi!

Well, now you've opened that can of worms with the fallback CSS which I have to get my head wrapped around again... so that pushes back the release date

I was hoping for October, but I don't seem to be able to meet that. But hopefully not too far away.
