Hi Meylodie,
I will check monday for the 2 first deprecated warning and let you know. This does not prevent the plugin from working.
About the “The Warning: Cannot modify header info…” :
This warning indicates that another plugin sent HTTP headers too early, preventing the “Anti Bots” plugin from blocking malicious visits. Headers are used to control redirects, cookies, and caching, and if sent prematurely, they disrupt the normal plugin execution flow.
Why It Happens:
A conflicting plugin or theme outputs data or calls header()/setcookie() too soon.
Common culprits include caching, redirection, or optimization plugins.
Whitespace or characters before/after PHP tags can also cause this.
Impact:
How to Fix:
Identify the conflicting plugin by deactivating others one by one.
Check the theme by switching to a default WordPress theme temporarily.
Contact support for the problematic plugin if identified.
Please, let me know if that works.
Regards,
Bill
Hello, thank you for your answer.
I tried to deactivate the different plugins, until only Antibot was left, I also renamed “cache” directory to “cache-back” and same for another cache file in the wp-content, using an SFTP client. I didn’t do the theme, because it would be too much work taking notes of all the custom options and restoring them.
So far, nothing changed : each time I click to “Save the modifications” in the “General Settings” tab, (with the options “test” and “4 weeks”, it redirects from : “*/wp-admin/admin.php?page=settings-anti-bots&tab=general_settings” to : the page “wp-admin/options.php” where the same lines are shown:

The theme I am using is https://wordpress.org/themes/chronus/.
I have used it for quite some time without hickups, starting with the blog
https://meets.citrotux.org.
Do these warnings prevent Antibot from functionning, or do not any of them prevent it from working? (I won’t spend more time on it… and I still have to reactivate protection plugins on the other subsites as they used to protect the WP network as a whole)

Hi,
I will run tests tomorrow.
Suggestions:
1) Install our plugin site-checkup and run all steps.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/site-checkup/
2) After install, if a red button shows up on your top bar, click to open. If you can see a chat, run auto checkup server and auto checkup errors.
If you have another site with another theme, run a test of our plugin antibots.
After that, please let me know.
Regards,
Bill
Please, let me know your PHP version.
Hi Meylodie,
I have fixed all issues and uploaded version 1.61. Please update to version 1.61 and let me know if it works properly on your server. After that, I suggest changing WP Debug to false to avoid showing critical information.

Bill
Hello Bill,
I have updated it in two multisites I manage, the second one having a very old theme, but very customized, I thought maybe, after deactivating caches, and removing the related directory and file from the engine, but there are also lots of warnings.

I still have to try your site-checkup page.
In “melodie.citrotux.org”, there is still that:
You have not told me if these warnings will let Antibot do it’s job, or not ?
(I know I can move the debug mode from “true” to “false”, I’ll do it later).

Hi Meylodie,
PHP introduced some changes in version 8.2 that established new rules requiring code modifications.
These new rules, in WordPress debug mode, warn that in the future, if you update PHP to newer versions, the code might cause errors.
It’s not urgent but it’s good to fix everything as soon as possible to avoid future surprises.
I made another change to our plugin to avoid the warning:
Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property page-builders.php on line 194
Please, update to version 1.62
Read the log carefully and pass this line to your theme developer:
/themes/xxxx/functions.php:323
Same for the GDPR plugin, which appears to be sending data to the site header prematurely. This may prevent AntiBots from functioning properly, because when it tries to deny access, another plugin has already improperly granted it.
I suggest you familiarize yourself with the tools we recommended before to better handle these problems.
Regards,
Bill
