    When I moved php from 5.6 to 7, I got total blank page (empty, white page, no content).

    I run PHP Compatibility Checker and detected for this plugin:

    FILE: /home/xxxxx/www/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-product-slider/class-zdev-wcps-shortcodes.php
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOUND 1 ERROR AFFECTING 1 LINE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 222 | ERROR | Functions can not have multiple parameters with the same name since PHP 7.0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Disabling this pligin restores site’s visibility.

  • I just figured it out… You need to delete the repeated parameter in class-zdev-wcps-shortcodes.php.

    Find the line beginning with static function flexslider_scripts

    Delete the second instance of $direction_nav

    Note: If you have pause/play display disabled you might also need to set the pausePlay to false in the jQuery below to hide those.

    Too late. Got rid of the plugin. The easiest fix. No new updates since 4 months, no replays, bugs… looks like a low quality plugin.

    Besides, I don’t like messing with php, because I don’t know it’s “grammar” so it’s easy to mess it up, so the solution is too complicated and too risky for me.

    @michaldybczak There is no such file in our plugin call class-zdev-wcps-shortcodes.php. Issue may caused by other plugin.

    The file was in your plugin folder and disabling your plugin was the solution to this PHP error. Seems like I am not the only one to had this issue as pointed in response above. I can’t imagine situation where a plugin puts a file into another plugin’s folder, aside malicious activities. Maybe that was the reason then? Nevermind, I deleted the plugin and have no more php issues.
