php7

I am currently running WADA with PHP 5.6 and MySQL. With the move to PHP7, what coding issues should I be on the lookout for that will disable my site?

Any interactions with the database will not work in php7 unless you update the pages to use MySQLi Server Behaviors instead. I'd strongly recommend not upgrading past php 6 for existing sites that use a database and weren't developed entirely with MySQLi Server Behaviors alone.

Did this help? Tips are appreciated...
