+***************************************************************
+Step 7: Remove usage of (previously) deprecated functionalities
+***************************************************************
+
+In addition to the ``$autoload['core']`` configuration setting, there's a number of other functionalities
+that have been removed in CodeIgniter 3.0.0:
+
+The SHA1 library
+================
+
+The previously deprecated SHA1 library has been removed, alter your code to use PHP's native
+``sha1()`` function to generate a SHA1 hash.
+
+Additionally, the ``sha1()`` method in the :doc:`Encryption Library <../libraries/encryption>` has been removed.
+
+The EXT constant
+================
+
+Usage of the ``EXT`` constant has been deprecated since dropping support for PHP 4. There's no
+longer a need to maintain different filename extensions and in this new CodeIgniter version,
+the ``EXT`` constant has been removed. Use just '.php' instead.
+
+Smiley helper js_insert_smiley()
+================================
+
+:doc:`Smiley Helper <../helpers/smiley_helper>` function ``js_insert_smiley()`` has been deprecated
+since CodeIgniter 1.7.2 and is now removed. You'll need to switch to ``smiley_js()`` instead.
+
+Security helper do_hash()
+=========================
+
+:doc:`Security Helper <../helpers/security_helper>` function ``do_hash()`` is now just an alias for
+PHP's native ``hash()`` function. It is deprecated and scheduled for removal in CodeIgniter 3.1+.
+
+.. note:: This function is still available, but you're strongly encouraged to remove it's usage sooner
+ rather than later.
+
+File helper read_file()
+=======================
+
+:doc:`File Helper <../helpers/file_helper>` function ``read_file()`` is now just an alias for
+PHP's native ``file_get_contents()`` function. It is deprecated and scheduled for removal in
+CodeIgniter 3.1+.
+
+.. note:: This function is still available, but you're strongly encouraged to remove it's usage sooner
+ rather than later.
+
+Date helper standard_date()
+===========================
+
+:doc:`Date Helper <../helpers/date_helper>` function ``standard_date()`` is being deprecated due
+to the availability of native PHP `constants <http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.datetime.php#datetime.constants.types>`_,
+which when combined with ``date()`` provide the same functionality. Furthermore, they have the
+exact same names as the ones supported by ``standard_date()``. Here are examples of how to replace
+it's usage:
+
+::
+
+ // Old way
+ standard_date(); // defaults to standard_date('DATE_RFC822', now());
+
+ // Replacement
+ date(DATE_RFC822, now());
+
+ // Old way
+ standard_date('DATE_ATOM', $time);
+
+ // Replacement
+ date(DATE_ATOM, $time);
+
+.. note:: This function is still available, but you're strongly encouraged to remove its' usage sooner
+ rather than later as it is scheduled for removal in CodeIgniter 3.1+.
+
+Pagination library 'anchor_class' setting
+=========================================
+
+The :doc:`Pagination Library <../libraries/pagination>` now supports adding pretty much any HTML
+attribute to your anchors via the 'attributes' configuration setting. This includes passing the
+'class' attribute and using the separate 'anchor_class' setting no longer makes sense.
+As a result of that, the 'anchor_class' setting is now deprecated and scheduled for removal in
+CodeIgniter 3.1+.
