I ran the PHP compatibility tester by WPEngine against the plugins in my site, which include SiteOrigins PageBuilder and the Widget Bundle. The following issues were noted as errors showing PHP 7 compatibility problems.
1) Can you look over an address these, possibly in an update to the plugin?
2) Do you have a compatibility statement regarding PHP 7 for the SiteOrigin plugins?
Thanks!
Joe
