George Botsev Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Sofia (GMT+02:00)	After updating to WordPress 4.8.3, you might encounter a notice like that one: Notice: wpdb::prepare was called incorrectly. The query does not contain the correct number of placeholders (1) for the number of arguments passed (3). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. This is caused by a change in WordPress as described here: make.wordpress.org/core/2017/10/31/changed-behaviour-of-esc_sql-in-wordpress-4-8-3/ We released a new release - WPML 3.8.4 which fixes these notices. You can get it manually from this site in Account > Downloads or automatically if you have registered WPML using the guide here: https://wpml.org/faq/install-wpml/#receiving-updates
