    Hi I am recieveing this error on several sites with WP 5.3. ON each when I disable this Cookie Bar plugin the error disappears.

    The error is
    Notice: add_submenu_page was called incorrectly. The seventh parameter passed to add_submenu_page() should be an integer representing menu position. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 5.3.0.) in /home/alixlaw1/public_html/wordpress-cms/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4903

  • Hi,

    I just ran several tests on v5.3 and I can not reproduce this error. What PHP version are you using? By “disable” you mean “deactivate” the plugin I guess, is this correct?

    Hi Thanks for the prompt response.
    I’m running 7.3 but have tested in 7.1 with the same problem. Below is a link to an image with all other plugins disabled, default theme and the problem still appearing (it is a dev site so errors are on).
    Yes, the notice goes away when Cookie Bar plugin is deactivated.

    After quite a bit of narrowing down it was definitely your plug-in creating the problem on one of my client sites. Here is the debug information.

    Hope that helps.

    I confirm the bug with wordpress v5.3. Cookie Bar v1.8.7 is now available which should be resolving this issue.

    Please update and let me know if you need anything further.
