Will you be updating K5.2 to use PHP8? From my point of view, this is absolutely essential, because K6 needs Joomla 4 and there is no way that my site is ready for Joomla 4, mainly because it is heavily dependent on Fabrik. A group of people are working to create a J4 compatible version of Fabrik, but it won't be ready for some time. In the meantime, I get reminders from Akeeba Backup that PHP7.4 will be unsupported starting in November this year.
I've tested my website with PHP8 and everything works except the Kunena RSS feed, which is something I need. All other Kunena features seem to work perfectly.
This is the output from the Kunena RSS feed when using PHP8:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- generator="Destroyer" -->
<?xml-stylesheet href="/pgcx/plugins/system/jce/css/content.css?badb4208be409b1335b815dde676300e" type="text/css"?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">

In other words, the individual forum posts are missing from the output.
This is the output after reverting the test environment to PHP7.4:
Code:

There's only one forum post because this isn't the live website, just a test environment.
Is there any chance that you could make the RSS feed PHP-compatible?
