[Plugin: WP-DBManager] Undefined Variable warning

Never mind. I discovered that debug mode got turned on somehow. Turning it back off hides the error messages.

Running in WP_DEBUG is intended to help catch this sort of error and in my test environment I always run with it on.

The cause of these messages should be corrected in the plugin.

I was about to post a message about this when I saw there was already one here.

I’m seeing other warnings as well. WP_DEBUG should be turned on in the plugin development environment so these errors can be cleaned up.

I am trying to debug my theme and got tired of seeing debug messages from my wp-dbmanger plugin.

So inserted the following code:

function cron_dbmanager_reccurences($schedules) {

if (!isset($backup_options['repair']) || !isset($backup_options['repair_period'])) {
                $repair = 0;
        } else {
                $repair = intval($backup_options['repair'])*intval($backup_options['repair_period']);
        }

No clue why repair and repair_period is missing from $backup_options. So this is not a fix per se. Just a way to shut up the debug.
