# Constant PHP Errors from this Plugin

 * This plugin is causing an undefined index PHP error on every single page, also
   causing “PHP Errors in Ajax Response” over and over again in the console if you
   enable Query Monitor. After Googling the error message, I discovered that this
   has been around for a few years.
 * `Undefined index: wp_db_temp_dir` at `wp-content/plugins/wp-db-backup/wp-db-backup.
   php:112`
 * Here’s Line 112, which is inside of the `wpdbBackup` class.
 * `$requested_temp_dir = sanitize_text_field($_GET['wp_db_temp_dir']);`
 * Someone even made a [pull request](https://github.com/matzko/wp-db-backup/pull/27)
   to fix this issue, but it has been sitting open, in purgatory, for years.
 * **Based on the staleness of this plugin, I would not recommend it to anyone.**
