Thank you, Petko! :))

I am trying out this skin:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Skins/Vanilla5

With PmWiki 2.2.107 running on XAMPP/PHP 7.21, I now get the error

Deprecated: Function create_function() is deprecated in 
C:\xampp\htdocs\pmwiki-2.2.107\pmwiki.php on line 481

which refers to the section

function PCCF($code, $template = 'default', $args = '$m') {
   global $CallbackFnTemplates, $CallbackFunctions;
   if (!isset($CallbackFnTemplates[$template]))
     Abort("No \$CallbackFnTemplates[$template]).");
   $code = sprintf($CallbackFnTemplates[$template], $code);
   if (!isset($CallbackFunctions[$code])) {
   $fn = create_function($args, $code);
     if ($fn) $CallbackFunctions[$code] = $fn;
     else StopWatch("Failed to create callback function: ".PHSC($code));
   }
   return $CallbackFunctions[$code];
}

and specifically the line

   $fn = create_function($args, $code);

I understand that create_function is deprecated in PHP 7.21, and that 
the fault is with the skin, not with PmWiki, as the standard skins do 
not trigger this.

Which means that a) we need to fix both pmwiki.php as well as the skin.
I get the same error with the Twitter Bootstrap skin.

Both those skins work with 2.2.107 when running XAMPP/PHP 5.6.33.
