    For stability reasons, SlickStack only uses the default packages included in each Ubuntu LTS version. So it looks like this:

    – Ubuntu 18.04… PHP 7.2
    – Ubuntu 20.04… PHP 7.4
    – Ubuntu 22.04… PHP 8.1

    https://github.com/littlebizzy/slickstack/tree/master/modules/php-fpm

    So if you want to downgrade you should install Ubuntu 20.04

    because of one plugin which is not OK with PHP 8.1

    Better solution is delete that plugin 😉

    don’t change your entire stack to accommodate bad code.

    PHP 8.1 is what you should be using in 2023

    The good thing is that after PHP 7, the PHP changes got a lot smoother and there are not really breaking changes anymore like previous older versions. Also the performance is really good now for any version after 7+ so changing versions around is not a big concern.
