Good Day!
It appears the [Gravity Forms Stripe Add-On](https://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/stripe/) (latest version, V4.1) is not compatible with PHP 8.X
Specifically, when we switch from PHP 7.4.23 (our current set-up) to PHP 8.0.10, and click on our Gravity Forms button, “Schedule Appointment”, we get an infinite loop (spinning circle) next to the button and the form never processes. With PHP 7.4.23 we do not have this issue.
(Note: We’re also using the PayPal Checkout Add-On and it’s running great wth PHP 8.0.10)
Is anyone else experiencing (or has experienced) the same issue? We read [Gravity Forms’ article on compatibility with PHP 8](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gravity-forms-and-php-8-0-compatibility/), but found nothing useful. In fact, the article does not mention anything about Gravity Forms Add-Ons. We also [read this post](https://community.gravityforms.com/t/when-gravityform-and-addons-compatible-with-php8/7229) but it did not help either.
If you’re a developer or coder, below please find our php\_errorlog output. Might help identify the issue and fix it.
Help appreciated. If there are any additional helpful troubleshooting steps that we should perform, please let us know.
We’re slowly, but surely, starting to migrate our website(s) to PHP 8.X
Thank you!
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan. I don’t see Stripe mentioned in the stack trace at all. It looks like this issue is related to the Appointment Booking Calendar?
GF\_Appointment\_Booking\_Calendar is mentioned in the stack trace.
Have you tried using Stripe on the site with PHP 8.0+ and without the Appointment Booking Calendar plugin?

Hi Chris,
Good catch!
We will need to switch to a staging site to perform the test you recommended. Will advise shortly.
Also, we have contacted the developers of gAppointments (sent them the same info posted here). It appears they recognize their plugin is not yet compatible with PHP above 8.0.1. See below for their response.
Until we have a chance to test your recommendation with our staging site (to confirm indeed if the Stripe Add-On or gAppointments are the issue), please don’t close this topic.
If you or your developer(s) need to reach out to gAppointments, here’s their contact info:
`gappointments[at]deluxethemes[dot]zendesk[dot]com`
Thank you!
Jonathan
