Hi guys,
Please read our Deprecations docs at https://developers.elementor.com/docs/deprecations/
When we deprecate code, we have 8 versions until the code is removed. Please follow the instructions in https://developers.elementor.com/v3-6-planned-deprecations/
It’s a simple fix, in your addon, you simply need to rename the “scheme” class. If it’s not your addon, please contact the addon developer.
I’m getting this message after I updated my PHP version from 5.6 to 7.4 Deprecated Elementor Scheme Typography is deprecated since version 2.8.0! Use Elementor Core Schemes Typography instead. (It’s a warning) in home proathle public html wp-includes functions.php on line 5051 ??
Hi John, it’s not related to PHP version. You probably updated your WordPress plugins, including Elementor.
