Hi,

I am using the Metropolis template and need to upgrade the PHP version of my site from 5.3 to 5.5. When I do this upgrade, I get the following error message: Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in /home/XXXXXXX(username)/public_html/libraries/joomla/filter/input.php on line 664

For the moment, I am using PHP 5.4 with no errors but security support for it will end in September. Are you able to assist?

Many thanks!

Hello

The issue you are having does not appear to be template related. Could I ask you to try enabling one of the default Joomla templates (Beez) and see if the issue persists?

Hi,

I changed the default template to Beez and still got the same error message on the home page (and in the back end of Joomla): Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead in /home/XXXXXXX(username)/public_html/libraries/joomla/filter/input.php on line 664

Regards,

FIXED! I discovered that the Joomla version on the site was 3.1.1 but the Control Panel was showing Joomla as up-to-date. I upgraded the Joomla version to 3.4.3 and then upgraded the PHP to 5.6 and had no problems.

Thanks for your support and please close this issue.
