Replace this code

Swap JRequest::getInt() for $app->getInput()->get('x', 0, 'INT').

Joomla 3

Remove or stop calling this

$id = JRequest::getInt('id');
$task = JRequest::getCmd('task');
$word = JRequest::getWord('layout');
$all = JRequest::get('post');
JRequest::setVar('id', 1);
$method = JRequest::getMethod();

Joomla 4 / 6

Use this instead

$input = Factory::getApplication()->getInput();
$id = $input->getInt('id');
$task = $input->getCmd('task');
$word = $input->getWord('layout');
$post = $input->post->getArray();
$input->set('id', 1);
$method = $input->getMethod();

How to fix it

  1. 1Same as JRequest::getVar: use Input.
  2. 2Map getInt→getInt, getCmd→getCmd, getWord→getWord.
