    One of my sites just started throwing the following warnings. No changes have been made recently except the host changed from php 5.3 to php 5.5.

    I went in and made sure everything was updated, but it didn’t help. Deleted and reloaded the plugin, still no help.

    Can you help me troubleshoot this?

    This just happened to a second site after the php upgrade. It breaks simple sidebars on some (older) of my WP sites, but on most it is fine. The ones that are breaking are up to date, but the child themes are older, not mobile responsive. Can this be fixed?

    Well, in case anyone lands here with the same problem, after digging around I was able to resolve this using the solution here:

    The problem/solution is over two years old there, but I suppose it depends on when your host decides to upgrade past php 5.3 – it seems the problem shows up at 5.4 and beyond.

    Cheers!
