Compatibility with PHP7.2

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Not too sure what to make of this problem... only noticed it today. I was running with PHP7.2 and no apparent problem. Then today I checked in on the web site and the following message appeared instead of the Whale Grid contents :

count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable

So I went and shut off the caches and flushed my browser's cache and tried again. Same error popped up.

So I did a Google search on that specific error message and I found on the Concrete5 site where this error has been attributed or speculated to being attributable to third party add ons that are not compatible with PHP7.2...

So I went back to my hosting package and rolled back the PHP version for this web site PHP7.2 to PHP7.1 and the same error popped up....

SoI flushed my browsers cache and I rolled back the PHP7.1 to PHP7.0... and magically everything started working properly again.

So the question is : Is there a compatibility problem with the Whale Grid 2.4.5 and PHP7.2 or is there something else I should be tinkering with to get things functioning properly again ?

Thanks in advance
