I upload my Laravel project on shared hosting. When I upload my project on the server it throws an exception then switched my PHP version 5.4 to 7.4. Now am facing this issue.

Deprecated: Directive 'allow_url_include' is deprecated in Unknown on line 0

I also disable the allow_url_include in my PHP ini file which exists in project root directory but it still says allow_url_include depreciated error.

Also, I go into the PHP Multi INI Editor and change the allow_url_include but it still throw the above error.

Remove .htaccess or change name to .htaccess.backup and WP will generate new file based on your site configuration

Log into your website host and navigate to your public_html folder and find the php.ini file. Open the file and find this code:

; Whether to allow include/require to open URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
; http://php.net/allow-url-include
allow_url_include = On

Change allow_url_include = On to allow_url_include = Off and save the file.

This should fix the error.

In case anyone comes across this:

Make sure that .htaccess files at all levels do not have conflicting code.

That is, I found that my ".../public_html/.htaccess" did not have any conflicts. However, I also had an .htaccess file in the folder level above that and it included code that read:

# Use PHP71 as default AddHandler application/x-httpd-php71 .php <IfModule mod_suphp.c> suPHP_ConfigPath /opt/php71/lib </IfModule>

Commenting this out resolved the error for me.

If your web host uses Cpanel, log in and under the Software section click Select PHP Version, then on the next screen click Options. Under Options, unclick allow_url_include:

Please Update PHP version of your site through CPanel to 7.3. This fixed the issue for my site. Thank you!

My client had 2 .ini files, conflicting max_input_var.

Deleting user.ini worked for me! Payment options were greyed out in WooCommerce. Now they are showing and this "allow_url" error is gone.
