The previous patches didn't suppress the error message for me.

I looked at the calling code, and it requires the keyed array to function, so getTokenArgument should always return it. The merge request (9) I just submitted does that.

PHP7 is EOL, true. According to the same page, it remains the most widely used version with nearly 50% usage and is supported by Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (which is what we use) until April 2025, well after Drupal 9 reaches its EOL.

I wasn't necessarily asking to maintain compatibility until the very end. I don't mind staying behind for a few months. I'm worried about what could happen if a security flaw is discovered since installing the updated version won't be possible.

Anyway, I understand your POV. Thanks for the quick response.

Hi, sorry to be reopening a closed issue.

PHP 7.4 is still supported by Drupal 9 until its end of life.

https://www.drupal.org/docs/getting-started/system-requirements/php-requ... β†’

Dropping support early means users like me will be unable to receive future updates, especially security updates.

I don't think something like this should be done in a minor release. Especially since issue #3310687 β†’ (Drop PHP7 compatibility) says to only do it for the 3.x branch for now.

Feel free to re-close; I'll just be over here with version 8.x-2.33, crossing my fingers that no security flaw is found in the next 7 months.
