Invalid arguments passed Error listed on Plugins page

    Hi there,
    I just went to update the plugin and noticed the following error message just below the Testimonials Widget entry on my Plugins page:

    Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in /home/[account]/public_html/myurl.com/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-plugins-list-table.php on line 421

    It seems to have popped up since the previous update 2.13.4, but updating to 2.13.5 did not resolve it.

    I do have the premium plugin installed, and the error displays under that too. But the error remains under the main plugin when deactivating the premium plugin, so I’m guessing the problem is with the free version.

    On the bright side, I haven’t yet noticed any malfunctioning of the front end testimonials, so it’s not a critical issue. But it’s still an error, so something is not quite right. Any ideas?

    Thanks!
    Sarah

    Sarah,

    What’s the rest of the warning messages? This isn’t helping at all to figure out the initial point. I’m thinking it’s another plugin conflict.

    Can you do a debug backtrace and leave the juicy details here?

    I don’t have enough PHP experience to know what to do with that, but I found a plugin (Development Debug Backtraces) that did it for me!

    Here’s what it says:

    Is this helpful? I deleted the chunks of help text about plugins that was included above. Hope that’s ok. Let me know if there’s anything else I can do on my end.

    Thanks for your help, Michael!

    Can you update your WordPress core files? The argument call to implode should first be the glue and second, the array.

    In the backtrace, the first parameter is the testimonials widget array. I’m suspecting either outdated or custom modified WordPress core files or there’s another plugin that’s modifying the plugin page operations.

    If WP core files update doesn’t work, then please try https://aihrus.zendesk.com/entries/25119302-How-do-you-debug-common-issues-.

    Would simply re-installing WordPress via Dashboards>Updates be the same as updating the core files? Or do I need to follow the manual update steps here: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Updating_WordPress ?

    The re-install did not fix it. Deactivating all (other) plugins and changing the theme did not resolve the error either. I’ve not made any changes to the core file myself, but perhaps a plugin did some damage.

    Something else I found in my testing: the error goes away when I revert the Testimonials Widget plugin to 2.13.3 (but then of course I can’t activate the premium plugin!).

    Any further insights or idea? I really appreciate your time. 🙂

    Correct on “re-installing WordPress via Dashboards>Updates be the same as updating the core files”.
