Hi, When checking your plugin for PHP 8.2 compatibility, these warnings and errors are found. Can you please update your plugin to be fully compatible with 8.2 and preferably 8.3 as well?

The purpose of a polyfill is to provide backwards compatibility to older PHP versions which is why it is referencing to functions that may no longer be supported. It does not actually call these functions on newer PHP versions and should not be a cause of concern. Thanks for the update!
