Slim Image Cropper PHP 8

Used to use SlimImageCropper to crop images before uploading on websites.
I get a 500 server error using php 8.

I know nothing about php classes or what could be causing the error with a newer version of php

the error is in the following code:

abstract class SlimStatus {
    const FAILURE = 'failure';
    const SUCCESS = 'success';
}

class Slim {

    public static function getImages($inputName = 'slim') {

        $values = Slim::getPostData($inputName);

        // test for errors
        if ($values === false) {
            return false;
        }

        // determine if contains multiple input values, if is singular, put in array
        $data = array();
        if (!is_array($values)) {
            $values = array($values);
        }

        // handle all posted fields
        foreach ($values as $value) {
            $inputValue = Slim::parseInput($value);
            if ($inputValue) {
                array_push($data, $inputValue);
            }
        }

        // return the data collected from the fields
        return $data;

    }

    // $value should be in JSON format
    private static function parseInput($value) {

        // if no json received, exit, don't handle empty input values.
        if (empty($value)) {return null;}

        if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
            $value = stripslashes($value);
        }

Do you have access to the PHP logs? It would be good to know what the actual error is that’s happening. Otherwise we can only blindly guess what might be wrong. And blindly guessing doesn’t tend to yield good results.

One thing I spotted is that you use the function get_magic_quotes_gpc which was deprecated in version 7.4.0 and removed in 8.0.0.

So if i remove this line it could possibly work??

You can’t simply remove a function call or a line of code and hope it will work as it did before. You need to check the manual and see what the function did and what the proper way is to handle things.

However, in this case the function has performed no useful role for some while. If you remove these three lines of code

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
    $value = stripslashes($value);
}

it should be fine. If you look at the manual, you will see that the function returned false, so those 3 lines have been redundant for some while.

Spot on.

I removed the check and it is working normally as it did before.

Many thanks!!!
