Hi @THXMAN

What Local version are you on? Also, what PHP version are you selecting?

Hi all - Imagick is not compiled with PHP on these versions and is something we have on our backlog to implement. In the meantime, there is a feature request on the forums here - [ImageMagick on PHP 8](http://community.localwp.com/t/imagemagick-on-php-8/29823)

You can upvote the issue for us to take a look at if you’d like!
