Theme has resulted in a critical error Version 1.0

Hi,

I’ve recently received an email from HostMonster that the Highend theme I’m running has caused a critical error and resulted in my website being shut down. I’m running the Highend theme version 1.0. I’m seeing on the forums that there may be an issue with PHP version 8?

Please help!

Thanks,

Robert Petkoff

Here is the error message from Hostmonster:

WordPress version 5.9.3
Current theme: Highend Child (version 1.0.0)
Current plugin: (version )
PHP version 8.0.17
