Problem: The client encountered a PHP deprecation warning in the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin, specifically with the
strtotime()
function, indicating 'Passing null to parameter #1 ($datetime) of type string is deprecated'. This occurred while using WordPress Version 6.7, PHP Version 8.2, Plugin Version 4.6.14, and WooCommerce Version 9.4.2. Solution: We explained that the deprecation notice is not a fatal error and will not affect the PHP's ability to complete tasks on the site. This type of warning typically indicates that the way a function is used will be removed in future PHP versions. We assured the client that in future versions of WPML, this warning will be resolved.
