Plugin causes error in dashboard

    I have following error in the dashboard content section:
    PHP Recoverable fatal error: Object of class Closure could not be converted to string in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\custom-content-shortcode\includes\overview\content-overview.php on line 650

    The dasboard does not load all of the content page. It stops at a icon shortcode.

    Even the error message points to another plugin – when I deactivate this plugin – the dashboard loads fine – no error messages at all. Reactivating the plugin again brings back the error.

    Hi @polarracing. If this is a problem you’re still experiencing:

    (1) Could you verify that your PHP version is within the supported range of versions for this plugin? This plugin requires PHP 5.6 or later.

    (2) Could you explain on the situation in more detail (or, better, provide a screenshot of the dashboard where you’re seeing the problem)?

    (3) Could you let me know what is in the icon short code that seems to be the point of failure?

    Thanks,
    -mike

    Hi,

    sorry for the late answer.

    1. I use PHP 7.3.2 – so PHP version should be no issue
    2. No, sorry but I removed your plugin and implemented FontAwesome locally. So I have currently no access to the previous dashboard. But the dashboard was just ending with the error message I posted – so nothing spectacular to see there.
    3. As far as I remember it was the icon short-code.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi @polarracing :

    I’ve released 4.0.0-rc15 which I expect to provide more helpful diagnostic information in the web console.

    Since it looks like you have another shortcode plugin involved (which is where the error traces to), there may be some kind of conflict between this plugin and that one. It’s possible that the new version of this plugin will resolve that. Or if not, the additional diagnostic information may help to find the root cause.
