Logs or notes

The latest version of Divi appears to have been updated, so the error is less widespread. However, I'm still opening an issue after the Slack conversation here: p1725819820858299-slack-C03TY6J1A

Notes from Mike on that Slack thread:

=== VideoPress_Divi_Extension is part of Jetpack to add VideoPress support in Divi. This exists in Jetpack in jetpack/13.8/jetpack_vendor/automattic/jetpack-videopress/src/videopress-divi/class-videopress-divi-extension.php. It seems to not be compatible with PHP 8+ as there is no function defined for admin_hook_enqueue_scripts , which is called during initialization. PHP 8+ is more strict about this.

Divi added admin_hook_enqueue_scripts to their DiviExtension class at some point in the last 4 years, which is what Jetpack extends. Jetpack should still have this function defined as well to prevent the fatal in older versions of Divi, so it's still worth filing a bug report. In newer versions of Divi it is defined as this:

public function admin_hook_enqueue_scripts() {
    if ( et_builder_bfb_enabled() || et_builder_is_tb_admin_screen() ) {
        $this->_enqueue_backend_styles();
    }
}

cc @pgk ; Is that something you could look into, since you had worked on the original functionality in #28193?

Thank you!

Came across another instance of this error in 9172850-zd-a8c (Divi version 4.4.1). Updating to the latest version of Divi (currently 4.27.4) fixed the issue.
