CodeIgniter 3 PHP 8.2 Fixes

Job ID: 40193525

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I have an existing CodeIgniter 3 application that ran smoothly on PHP 8.1 but now throws a stream of “Deprecated” notices after I switched the server to PHP 8.2.

What I need is a clean, future-proof patch set that removes every deprecated call, keeps the current structure intact, and passes a quick functional smoke-test. Please work directly on the controllers, models, and any custom helpers where the errors appear, making sure nothing in the public interface changes.

Deliverables
• Updated source files with deprecations resolved
• A concise change log referencing each file touched and the PHP 8.2 notice it fixed
• Confirmation that the site runs with error_reporting = E_ALL and display_errors off (no new logs)

I can give you SSH + repo access and a staging URL as soon as we start.
