Critical error after PHP upgrading

The site was working without any issues on PHP version 7.4. When I switched to PHP 8.2, I started getting a critical error whenever I try to preview a post:
There has been a critical error on this website.

If I revert PHP back to 7.4, the error disappears and everything works normally. I’ve tried other PHP 8.x versions as well, but every 8.x version causes the same critical error.

All my plugins are up to date, and I’m using the latest version of the Newspaper theme — 12.7.1.

When I disable all other plugins, the error still appears. Only the following plugins are active, and the problem still occurs during post preview:

My site address is https://breakingthesilence.rs/

I just noticed that only the homepage works without any issues, while every post actually leads to the same critical error. So it’s not just the preview — the issue affects all single posts.
I had to change PHP back to 7.4.

This is what I get:

All plugins are deactivated (except tagDiv plugins) and after replacing td composer and td cloud library I am getting this:

There has been a critical error on this website.

As soon as I move back from any php 8.x version to php 7.4 the error message is gone.

Email has been sent with the credentials.

Thank you so much, it is resolved.

Hello @Calin I seem to have the same issue. Since PHP updates cause some errors with different plugins, I am testing it on the Staging site. The only error I am getting is this:

Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the td-cloud-library domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/customer/www/staging3….in/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6121 – which is basically:

if ( E_USER_ERROR === $error_level ) {
throw new WP_Exception( $message );
}

trigger_error( $message, $error_level );
}

May I ask how you all solved this?

Hey @Calin, yes, I did this but it didn’t help but I also read your response to a similar question regarding the author-plugin. Removed Publish Press’ multi author plugin and then re-installed this zip file and it worked. All is good. I have another issue, but will write a new post on it! Thanks for your help 🙂

Hi @Calin, may I join the queue? 🙂

My messages are referring to Newsmag and healt-check – see below.
Are there any updates for me?
BTW, everything seems to work fine, I would just like to get rid of those messages cluttering my debug.log 🙂

Thanks!

Hi John,

your problem has a solution already, as Calin wrote in some other posts. Just install the newest version of plugin from https://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/td-cloud-library.zip

PS. I am not an expert, I just reposted the advice from Calin.

Regards,
Milan

Hi Calin,

Thank you for your advice, I’ve read it already a couple of times.
I have one question: I am not using td-cloud-plugin and my error message says “Newsmag” and not “td-cloud…” as with other people who reported here.

PHP Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the Newsmag domain was triggered too early.

Is td-cloud a part of Newsmag? In other words, I understand that you advise me to install td-cloud-library to solve Newsmag problem. Correct?

Thank you!
