[Plugin: Easy FancyBox] Media Settings show Warnings; can't customize

I really cannot explain that message. Do you see it on the admin page or in your error log files?

Any other plugins running on that site? Does switching them all off solve the issue? And what if you temporarily switch to the WordPress default theme?

…on line 240

Sounds like you are using FancyBox version 1.3.4.8. Could you try upgrading to or re-installing the latest or even the development version?

Line 240 is just a closing curly bracket.

It should not be… Something went wrong during installation maybe?

We tried installing various versions to see if any of them worked. We just re-installed the latest and The warnings are still there, but slightly different.

This is the error message:
Warning: Missing argument 1 for easy_fancybox_settings_fields() in D:\Inetpub\webroot\wp-content\plugins\easy-fancybox\easy-fancybox.php on line 270

This is the line of code it is referring to:

// FancyBox Media Settings Fields
Line 270 ---> function easy_fancybox_settings_fields($args){
	switch($args['input']) {
		case 'multiple':
		case 'deep':
			foreach ($args['options'] as $options)
				easy_fancybox_settings_fields($options);
			echo $args['description'];
			break;
		case 'select':
			if( !empty($args['label_for']) )
				echo '<label for="'.$args['label_for'].'">'.$args['title'].'</label> ';
			else
				echo $args['title'];
			echo '
			<select name="'.$args['id'].'" id="'.$args['id'].'">';
			foreach ($args['options'] as $optionkey => $optionvalue) {
				$selected = (get_option($args['id'], $args['default']) == $optionkey) ? ' selected="selected"' : '';
				echo '
				<option value="'.esc_attr($optionkey).'"'.$selected.'>'.$optionvalue.'</option>';
			}
			echo '

This is next to the only options shown: Enable FancyBox for, Links, Overlay, and Window.

Like I said, I really cannot explain the error. It says the argument $arg is missing but the whole function is called only when that argument exists. So the whole error is completely unexpected, even on (apparently) a Windows server…

Unless there is something wrong with the WordPress installation. Are there any other weird errors occurring? Anything more meaningful in the server error log files? And what happens when you disable all other plugins and switch to the default theme?

If there is a possibility to let me take a look in your WordPress admin to see the issue live, please send me the data via the contact for on my site https://4visions.nl/contact-en/

Remembered that I never posted our solution to this problem.

We had to upgrade WordPress to the latest version and that solved all of the errors. We were wary of upgrading at first due to the designers of our template warning us that it could break with an upgrade to WordPress.

Thanks for taking the time to help RavanH!

Hi JLeksell, thanks for coming back on this… I never paid attention to the fact you marked version 2.8.5 there. Still, it strikes me as odd but I’ll mark the plugin as incompatible with only 2.9 and up.

I’m not going to test backward compatibility for those old versions anyway ??
