Reported for: WPML Sticky Links 1.5.4
Overview of the issue
If you are using WPML Sticky Links plugin with PHP 8.x, you will find a deprecated error like the following:
PHP Deprecated: Automatic conversion of false to array is deprecated in .../wp-content/plugins/wpml-sticky-links/classes/class-wpml-sticky-links.php on line 19
Workaround
Please, make sure of having a full backup of your site before proceeding.
- Open …/wp-content/plugins/wpml-sticky-links/classes/class-wpml-sticky-links.php file.
- Look for line 19.
- Just before this line of code:
1
$this->settings['sticky_links_widgets'] = 0; - Add the following:
123
if(!is_array($this->settings)){$this->settings =array();}
When are you going to release an official update for this? I don’t want to code workarounds in official 3rd party plugins.
Many thanks, Daniel
