PHP version recommendation
Citadela theme and plugins are fully compatible with PHP 8.x. If you’re getting any errors with PHP 8.x, please check your PHP error log files for possible issues. All our preview websites including www.ait-themes.club is running on PHP 8.x without any issues.
PHP locale settings
We recommend using the default “C” locale if your hosting provider has overwritten default locale settings. Overwritten locale settings might cause issues with GPS number formats in Listing items.
To fix the issue please include the following line into wp-config.php:
setlocale(LC_ALL, "C");
