    Akismet 4.1.3 causes a fatal error on PHP 7.4 on single.php.

    PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught ArgumentCountError: Too few arguments to function Akismet::set_form_js_async(), 1 passed in wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 288 and exactly 3 expected in wp-content/plugins/akismet/class.akismet.php:1199

    Hi Goce,

    I’m unable to reproduce with the latest WordPress release, Akismet 4.1.3, and PHP 7.4.

    The next step in debugging is to see how your theme is calling apply_filters.
    Can you post the code from your theme around line 63?

    It’s also possibly that another plugin you’re running is modifying what gets passed to set_form_js_async(). You could confirm this by disabling your other plugins (and anything in mu-plugins) and seeing if the issue still exists. Let me know what you find out.

    Thanks @cfinke!

    You’re right. The problem was caused by a call to apply_filters(), specifically to the ‘script_loader_tag’ filter. As soon as I removed the apply_filters() wrapper the error was gone.
