magic_quotes_gpc error php 5.3 and above

[Uridium]

if you see constant error messages like

Error: Directive 'magic_quotes_gpc' is deprecated in PHP 5.3 and greater

Error in "Unknown"

Line 0

and you don't have access to a php.ini file then just create your own php.ini and insert the following and upload to root folder

 

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

magic_quotes_runtime = Off

magic_quotes_sybase = Off

extension=pdo.so

extension=pdo_mysql.so

or tell your host :p I had an issue before and tried adding an .ini file and it broke so if that happens call your host and have them fix it

Or just not use depreciated functions?

Well you have to use it to turn it off, so by default php wont try to escape quotations and screw up your post and get data.

This.

Or

 

error_reporting(E_ALL ^E_DEPRECATED);

Or just use no code at all :) are we all finished with this topic now :)

Everyone was providing alternative solutions to the problem?

Also creating a php.ini in your root folder won't always work on every host. This is a feature only supported by certain control panels.
