Warning: Illegal offset type in isset or empty

[lukemcdonald]

I've recently had two people come to me about an issue when using the Options Framework Plugin and my theme. Apparently, when they are getting the following warning on the theme options page:

Warning: Illegal offset type in isset or empty in /.../wp-includes/pomo/translations.php on line 59

Line 59 has something to do with the translate_entry() function. Both sites with these issues are in another language.

Any ideas?

Have you been able to re-create the bug?

If so, perhaps e-mail me a copy of the theme and let me know what language it was in and I can take a shot at troubleshooting it. devin[at]wptheming.com

Email sent...

Any progress on this? I only ask because I just got another support questions regarding it... from a French user translating WP. Below is his comment and a link to his screenshot for reference.

"I've got this message when I "Save option" in "theme options" the options are changed but i've got that:"

I installed a French version of WordPress and tested with Options Check. It runs fine.

Can you reproduce the bug locally? If so, can you e-mail me the files and steps to reproduce- otherwise there's not much I can do.

[lukemcdonald]

I'll give a shot when I have some time. I know the plugin runs fine, I think they are just seeing the warnings. If error reporting is enabled on their hosting server or WordPress, I'm guessing that is why they are seeing the warnings. Not real sure right now...

Any updates on this Luke? I'm probably going to release a new version in the next week or so.

[lukemcdonald]

No, I haven't had a chance to try things out. So far, I've probably had a handful situations regarding this. I'm not sure what it could be, it could be anything. I think it can wait to be looked into or maybe just noted as it doesn't seem to affect anything as far as functionality goes. It's more of a warning that appears for users.

[lukemcdonald]

Just got another one of these. I'll have to take a look into this for sure. Apparently, each time they try to update the options, they get the warning. In this case, it was after this latest update. v0.9.

[devinsays]

If you can recreate the steps to reproduce it, I'm sure we can tackle it.

[lukemcdonald]

I think I have this figured out. The theme was trying to translate a variable that was an array.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for closing the ticket.
