Function create_function() is deprecated in php 7.2.0

Hello!

please open this file:
wp-content/plugins/oa-social-login/includes/widget.php

Then replace this:
add_action ('widgets_init', create_function ('', 'return register_widget( "oa_social_login_widget" );'));

By this:

function oa_social_login_init_widget ()
{
    return register_widget('oa_social_login_widget');
}
add_action ('widgets_init', oa_social_login_init_widget);

This should fix the compatibility issue. The fix will be included in the next version of the plugin.

Thank you for the workaround @claudeschlesser

After applying fix we’ve noticed other warnings:

php 7.2 The each() function is deprecated

I guess that’s the only issue left with php 7.2 and upcoming 7.3+ compatibility.

Thank you for the hint, I will have a closer look. We have a similar thread currently open in our support forum:

Please note that in my first answer, there are some missing quotation marks around oa_social_login_init_widget, here the correct version:

function oa_social_login_init_widget ()
{
    return register_widget('oa_social_login_widget');
}
add_action ('widgets_init', 'oa_social_login_init_widget');

Sorry for that!

Hello @claude,

Regarding to other deprecation warning on php7.2 I’ve mentioned here is a possible solution.

Thank you for the code!

The PHP 7.2+ compatibility has been fixed in the latest version 5.4.2 ??

Great thanks! Is it officially released ? Seems like we can’t update it via composer wpackagist ?? Any idea with this ?
