mysql_escape_string()

[austinvernsonger]

Getting the following error when debugging.

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mysql_escape_string() in /var/www/html/wp-content/themes/casper/functions.php

Thanks for the feedback! Will try to debug.

@austinvernsonger I assume you're using PHP7, mysql_escape_string was removed in version 7.

Warning
This function was deprecated in PHP 4.3.0, and it and the entire original MySQL extension was removed in PHP 7.0.0. Instead, use either the actively developed MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extensions. See also the MySQL: choosing an API guide and its related FAQ entry for additional information.

This should be removed from the theme.
