Forum Archive - Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array give

Hi There, I am getting the following message "Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in" then my server address, with the file name of option.php I have downloaded the latest version as advised to do so but I am still getting the message when I view. Can you help me please, as I don't understand the error message. Many Thanks, Emma

Hi Emma, Please post your website address, so I can check it. This warning doesn't seem to have any relation to our module, since it says that the issue is in option.php which is not a part of our module. Thanks!

Hi Edvard, will you be able to check it with the server address?

Probably if I see the full error I can point out what is the cause. Thanks!

Here you go Edvard, really hope it helps...! http://mi-linux.wlv.ac.uk/~1432932/wordpress/ Thanks in advance...

Please check what you have in wp-includes/option.php on line 28. I would recommend to turn off the error and warning messages when your site goes live. Thanks!

Thanks Edvard, how do I turn off the error / warning messages? Thanks, Emma

It is hosting specific, so the best way is to consult with your hosting provider. Thanks!

Hi Edvard, on line 28 it reads: $option = trim( $option ); I've tried different things, but my knowledge of .php is very small. I hope you can help me as I really like this plugin and I can't understand why it isn't working. When I deactivate from wordpress the error disappears but then so does the plugin.. There is a function being called above line 28, if it helps its: function get_option( $option, $default = false ) { global $wpdb; $option = trim( $option ); if ( empty( $option ) ) return false; Look forward to your help, and if you need any more code that may be helpful please let me know Many thanks, Emma

Hi Emma, I have asked to contact your hosting provider to ask how to turn off the warning messages. Have you done that? Thanks!

Hi Edvard, The site is only on a local server at the moment, are you able to turn off messages on the server? Thanks, Emma

Dear Emma, You can disable errors via php.ini file.
