Hi Maurice

Thanks for posting!

We will eventually be moving CMS Builder to PHP 7.

There isn't a timeframe for that yet.

Hi Ross.

That's to bad.

A large provider is forcing every one to php7 our customer dosn't want to switch provider up-side we get to built a new site in wordpress.
down-side no more cmsb. but it is what it is!

Hi Maurice, 

PHP 7 removed support for the mysql library which CMSB uses.  We're working on upgrading that code.

We usually like to be a little slower to adopt the latest and greatest PHP versions because often there are bugs and issues that need to be worked out.   But we're making it a top priority now.  Actually we were intending to have it done already so we're behind schedule.

PHP 5.6 is officially supported by the PHP team until the end of 2018: http://php.net/supported-versions.php  Ideally your host would support that.

But if they're forcing PHP 7 on you should could look at some of these workaround to re-enable the mysql library (or ask your host to do it so they're not causing you to have to do more work):

Cheers!
