    // Register a uninstall hook to remove all tables & option automatic
register_uninstall_hook( $this->plugin_name, array('nggLoader', 'uninstall') );

    Changed to …

    nextgen-gallery-v1.9.9 (nggallery.php)

    // Register a uninstall hook to remove all tables & option automatic
register_uninstall_hook( $this->plugin_name, array(&$this, 'uninstall') );

    The wp-debugger reports a problem:

    register_uninstall_hook was called incorrectly. Only a static class method or function can be used in an uninstall hook. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

    Why the change? v1.9.8 has worked correctly.

    The actual wp-function (v3.5) …

    function register_uninstall_hook( $file, $callback ) {
	if ( is_array( $callback ) && is_object( $callback[0] ) ) {
		_doing_it_wrong( __FUNCTION__, __( 'Only a static class method or function can be used in an uninstall hook.' ), '3.1' );
		return;
	}
	...
}

    Best regards

    this uninstall_hook error doesn’t seem to cause any problems for me. i only discovered it while trying to debug my contact form. am i missing something i should be aware of, or can i just wait until the author fixes it?

    thanks…

    You need to write class in string instead of passing $this, i.e.

    register_uninstall_hook( __FILE__, array('your_class_name', 'your_class_method') );

    As you see the if condition below, the first parameter of callback must not be an object.

    function register_uninstall_hook( $file, $callback ) {
	if ( is_array( $callback ) && is_object( $callback[0] ) ) {
		_doing_it_wrong( __FUNCTION__, __( 'Only a static class method or function can be used in an uninstall hook.' ), '3.1' );
		return;
	}
	...
}
