Is Prestashop 1.6.1.24 compatible with php version 7.2?

[Sarasys]

Hi, friends
Is anyone here using version 7.2 PHP on Prestashop 1.6.1.24? For some reason I needed to upgrade my PHP version from 7.1 to 7.2 and there was no problem although I know this version of PrestaShop supports PHP version 7.1. Do you think this will be a problem for my store later?

The last version from the repository is (https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop-1.6). It was updated by volunteers and not officially released by PrestaShop.

I have run into a problem running PHP 7.2 on my PS 1.6.1.24 store. Trying to access the CMS pages from admin for editing returns a HTTP 500 error. No problem on PHP 7.1.

I wanted to upgrade the PHP version so I can install PS v8 in a subdomain to develop as a replacement for the old store. Sadly PS v8 is not supported on PHP 7.1 so I am kind of stuck as to what to do.

I tried to upgrade my PS 1.6.1.24 to 1.7.8.11 and the Softaculous says:

"PHP version is less than the required 7.2.0
 Do you wish to enable PHP 7.2.34 ? (Might cause issues with your existing installations)."

And with that enabled, the backoffice login disappeared totally! Had to get back with 1.6.1.24 with PHP 7.1 - that works fine.

Just wondering how on earth am I able to upgrade my PS in order to have the chance to build up the new store alongside with the old one...
