WP 4.3 constructor deprecation warning
-
Hi,
With the advent of WordPress 4.3, the plugin is generating a deprecation warning.
This is because of an upcoming deprecation that will generate a warning in PHP7, and be well and truly taken out of PHP8. It’s a fairly simply fix as described in this post on the make.www.remarpro.com blog:
– In all classes in the plugin, rather than using constructor functions with the same name as the class (PHP4 method), name it __construct() (PHP5+ method)
– In classes extending WP_Widget, to initiate the widget with the WP_Widget classes constructor method, call parent::__constructor. (As opposed to calls like $this->WP_Widget, WP_Widget::WP_Widget or parent::WP_Widget)Will the plugin be updated to fix this warning/future error?
Thanks.
