Fatal Error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as arra

Just FYI – I went ahead and did the rest of the updates on the site, including updating it to WP 4.6. The fatal error remains when I attempt to update this plugin, though.

Thanks,
Kat

I get this error too, on upgrading to WP.4.6

PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on boolean in xxxxxx/plugins/mailchimp/mailchimp.php on line 638

The site won’t load with this error (shows a 500 error) so I’ve disabled this plugin in meantime, and site works fine.

Any advice?

Hey y’all —

I’m looking into this right now. Sorry about the headache!

Just updated it with a quick fix if you don’t mind re-installing?

Apologies again for the issue!

Thanks for fast feedback. Will install and check right now. Stand by ..

I now get same error as @katmoody

PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in xxxxx/wp-content/plugins/mailchimp/mailchimp.php on line 639

Breaks site with a 500 error

Dang it. I’m digging into this again.

This is the code for those line section in latest version. Is this correct? Do I have latest version?

function mailchimpSF_signup_submit() {
$mv = get_option(‘mc_merge_vars’, array());
$mv_tag_keys = array();

$igs = get_option(‘mc_interest_groups’, array());

$listId = get_option(‘mc_list_id’);
$email = isset($_POST[‘mc_mv_EMAIL’]) ? strip_tags(stripslashes($_POST[‘mc_mv_EMAIL’])) : ”;
$merge = $errs = $html_errs = array(); // Set up some vars

$merge = mailchimpSF_merge_submit($mv);

//Catch errors and fail early.
if(is_wp_error($merge)) {
$msg = “<strong class=’mc_error_msg’>” . $merge->get_error_message() . “”;
mailchimpSF_global_msg($msg);

return false;
}

Hey there- sorry to butt in! Mind if I get some info from you to help Nate test this out? Specifically:

1. The link to the site where this issue is occurring
2. The name of the theme you’re using
3. A link to your hosted signup form for the MC list the plugin is connected to
4. Also, when did you first install (not update) the plugin?

Thanks for working with us! I’ll keep an eye on this thread for your reply.

Hey again Sally —

There was another place where this was failing that should now be patched up. Mind letting me know if that fixes the issue? Again, sorry for the trouble.

Hey there –

I had responded but saw that there was an update since I last checked in so went ahead with that – no problems! Yay! Thanks for the fast fix!

I am still seeing this issue on my install.
Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in public_html/wp-content/plugins/mailchimp/mailchimp.php on line 639

I am using version 1.5.2 of the plugin and WordPress 4.6.
The plugin has been working fine up till now. Any ideas?

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing the plugin again? There was at least one update pushed through on the 1.5.2 version and maybe you didn’t get that update. Just wondering because the last version of 1.5.2 fixed the issue for me. ??

Thanks Kat
I tried manually overwriting the plugin files with the latest download and that did the trick. Not sure why the latest version installed via WordPress still had the error but I don’t mind since I no longer see the ‘Fatal Error’. Cheers!!

Please Help! I have installed the mail chimp plugin, yes the official plugin. It worked fine last week but decided I did not want it after messing around with it in my post pages just by testing it out here and there. From there I decided to unistall the plug in and then delete it. Well now I do want to have the plugin and just installed it and activated it this morning , and I am now getting this response when I click on “settings” in the mail chimp plugin. I have also verified with mail chimp tech support it is not on there end. Please help!
