Recent Update Created Error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array

I am experiencing this same issue. When I deleted and tried to re-add the plugin, then I received a response” The plugin does not have a valid header.”
Please help…

Thanks for reporting – I’m working on a fix for the next release.

This should be fixed in the new release (3.1.5).

I now get these errors after I sign in to Constant Contact and redirect back to the site:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/cmservices/public_html/wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-api/vendor/constantcontact/constantcontact/src/Ctct/Services/ListService.php on line 30

Version 3.1.6 same issue

Version 3.1.6 same issue

Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Ctct\Components\Contacts\Contact::create() must be an array, null given, called in /wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-api/vendor/constantcontact/constantcontact/src/Ctct/Services/ContactService.php on line 63 and defined in /wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-api/vendor/constantcontact/constantcontact/src/Ctct/Components/Contacts/Contact.php on line 153

I am getting this error as well. When I place the widget at the footer of the page, it breaks the rest of the widgets after it in the code.

I have since suspended it at smshug.org

Error code:
Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Ctct\Components\Contacts\ContactList::create() must be of the type array, null given, called in /home4/smshug/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-api/vendor/constantcontact/constantcontact/src/Ctct/Services/ListService.php on line 89 and defined in /home4/smshug/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/constant-contactapi/vendor/constantcontact/constantcontact/src/Ctct/Components/Contacts/ContactList.php on line 53

I am having a similar problem…

Does anyone have a solution or should I start a new thread?

I’m receiving the same errors as walterkeener3, except that the last one references Line 379.

The funny thing is, this is working fine on my local site, which is essentially the same as the live site.

I am using version 3.1.6 of the plugin and was still getting the same “Catchable fatal error: Argument 1” error as many previous posts.

In my case, I had to mess with the Form Builder so that it matched my exact specs for my previous design of the form (before the update that broke all this).

Specifically, I had First Name, Last Name, Email and 2 checkboxes for the subscriber to choose what list(s) to join. After the update, the form builder was using a pulldown and didn’t have fields for First and Last Name.

Once I perfectly matched what I had before (added name fields and checkboxes), it started working again.

I hope that helps somebody. I couldn’t find any working solutions from the developer (Katz) or the Constant Contact site.

I recently encountered this error as well.

This appears to be an issue when your lists are “out of sync”

For me, the solution was as simple as:
1. Going to “Constant Contact” => “Lists” (not sure this is required, but including because it’s the steps I took).
2. Then going to “Constant Contact” => “Form Designer”, and clicking “Save” for the form in question.

The error is being thrown because one of the list API calls is not returning any data. By doing the steps above, it seems to reset the lists that are “valid”.

I’m suspecting the client deleted a list, and that was the issue. Again – unsure, but the steps above worked.
