[SOLVED] Plugin works but seeing errors

I have the plugin working but seeing errors on different pages not sure why they are appearing.

Example:
onlinebackupsearch.com/news/new-zipcloud...e-backup-search.html

Error that appears 5 times

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /home/XXX/public_html/plugins/k2/mefgfork2/mefgfork2.php on line 73

Any ideas?

Thanks! -- Steven

I think I found the cause of the error.

It is the related items at the bottom of the page.

If the blog post has two related items the error appears twice.
If the blog post has five related items the error appears five times.

If I turn off the related items at the bottom of the post then the error does not appear at all.


Could the be a bug?

Thanks! -- Steven

Hello Steven...

The warnings are not bugs, they are just indications for the need of some enhancements if possible.

You can hide these warnings by setting the reporting level to "None" or "System Default" in the configuration of Joomla.

If this not work, you will need to set the display_errors option to "Off" in the php.ini file.

If you can't access php.ini, ask your hosting provider to do it.

Thanks for the reply.

I have set the error reporting to none, it was at system default.


Page Load Does not complete
In addition to the warnings displaying the page will not completely load in FF on Mac.
The page does complete in Chrome on Mac.

If I turn off the related items at the bottom of the page then the page load completes in FF on Mac.

Any thoughts about this?

Thanks! -- Steven

Did you tried the php.ini option?

The reporting level value should not affect the page loading at all

Thanks for the reply.

Setting the Joomla reporting to none worked fine. The issue with the page not loading has always been there. I forgot to mention it on my first post.

The page not loading happens at all error reporting levels and is only fixed when I turn off the related items on my K2 items page.

Thanks! -- Steven

The related items is working for me in FF on Ubuntu! and the warnings still appear!


I'm not sure why it is not laoding in FF on Mac.

Can you test in another environment and see what you will get?

Thanks so much for the reply.

I restarted FF on my mac and now the page is loading fine. If I notice anything else I will let you know.


I was very excited to see the plugin b/c I wanted to have some extra fields that apply to all categories and some fields that apply to specific categories. Thanks so much for creating this.

I will leave the error reporting to none. It would be great if the warnings are fixed so I can set the error reporting back to system default, then I will be able to see any other possible errors with other extensions.

Thanks Again! -- Steven

You are welcome at anytime.

For sure I will work to remove the warnings anyway.

Looking forward to read your review about the plugin if you like to write one.

Any ideas or suggestions to enhance the plugin are welcome.

Thanks again for the help. I have serveral thoughts and will work to put them together.

I think the plugin is off to a good start.

Thanks! -- Steven
