# Error message re: Undefined variable in plugin's faq.php file

 * Hi Bryan, I installed the Easy FAQ with Expanding Text plugin a few months ago
   on a site I’ve been developing, and have used the [bg_faq_start] and [bg_faq_end]
   shortcodes on three pages of the site without a problem.
 * Yesterday I moved that site from a subdomain to the root of the domain. Two of
   the pages with the shortcodes on them still look fine, but [this one now has the following error message](http://www.reinsurancestrategies.com/rating-agencies-definitions/):
 * > Notice: Undefined variable: foldup in /hermes/bosoraweb134/b90/ipg.themarketingquizcom/
   > reinsurancestrategies/wp-content/plugins/easy-faq-with-expanding-text/faq.php
   > on line 418.
 * The good news is, the expand/contract animations on that page still work, but:
   Can you tell me how to edit line 418 (or any other line) of the faq.php file 
   referenced in the error message in order to remove this error message from the
   page? **Thank you.**

 * I just uploaded version 3.2.8.2 and this should solve the issue.
 * Sorry it took so long! I started grad school recently and programming matters
   were pushed aside by economics and accounting.

 * Hi Brian, thanks for the message. I logged into my site and upgraded to version
   3.2.8.2 of the plugin, and used W3 Total Cache to empty all caches, but I am 
   still seeing this text just above the expandable bars on [this page](http://www.reinsurancestrategies.com/rating-agencies-definitions/):
 * > Notice: Undefined index: foldup in /hermes/bosoraweb134/b90/ipg.themarketingquizcom/
   > reinsurancestrategies/wp-content/plugins/easy-faq-with-expanding-text/faq.php
   > on line 412
 * Is there something I can/should do to get rid of that message on the page?
 * thanks,
    — Jim

 * Well, technically you could edit your PHP settings to just ignore errors like
   this…But you shouldn’t have to. Dealing with picky PHP rules is part of being
   a plugin developer. 🙂
    I just uploaded yet another version of the plugin that
   should take care of it.

 * Thanks, Brian, I upgraded to Version 3.2.8.3, and it worked–the error message
   is now **gone!**

 * Thanks! I wish I had gotten around to this sooner but I’m glad the flaw is gone.
