Thank you for your replies! It does me tons of good to have your help. So,
no worries about my array syntax. That is a relief. I don't know computer
programming. I'm one of the simple minded people. So I upgrade the wiki
only on LTR dates. Thank you for your help!

I get this error when I run the update.php, in either PHP 8.0 or PHP 8.1:

bilbo@cpanel84:~/www/teflpedia/maintenance$ php update.php
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Undefined constant "NS_IMAGE" in
/home/bilbo/public_html/teflpedia/LocalSettings.php:309
Stack trace:

#2 /home/bilbo/public_html/teflpedia/maintenance/update.php(312):

#3 {main}
  thrown in /home/bilbo/public_html/teflpedia/LocalSettings.php on line 309
bilbo@cpanel84:~/www/teflpedia/maintenance$

The update.php runs without errors, thankfully, in PHP 7.4.3. Why is that?

I recently upgraded this wiki from MediaWiki 1.35.1 to MediaWiki 1.39.1.
The wiki is over a decade old and uses short URLs which I prefer. I will
run it in PHP 7.4.3 for now, right?

Is there anything I should do?
