Hello,
I have the same problem – can you please create a new version of Woosidebars with update to work with PHP8?
Thank you Lucka
Same problem – this is the only plugin holding me back from PHP 8.0.2. An update for PHP 8 support would be awesome (or maybe someone could figure out how to update that line 170 to not throw the error).
Also interested, having the same problem.
You should be able to fix it yourself by changing the %a to %s on the line 170 before the plugin author publishes the fix.
@tatutre Thank You for solution.
Is a update coming for this plugin or is it abandoned?
Yes, I have same error.
THX for fix. And waiting official update!
Any news please? Abandoned plugin?
The error is fixed by going to the file:
/wp-content/plugins/woosidebars/classes/class-woo-sidebars.php
And chaning line 170 from:
'search_items' => sprintf( __( 'Search %a', 'woosidebars' ), $plural ),
To:
'search_items' => sprintf( __( 'Search %s', 'woosidebars' ), $plural ),
Tusind tak, @jenskirk – det var en life saver π
@jenskirk Thank you very much.
@jenskirk Nice job finding and describing the fix – much appreciated!
For other folks with this issue, and for what it’s worth – there is an update on Github that incorporates this fix. It was listed for stable release about a week ago (Jan 20, 2022) so hopefully we’ll see the update available here soon.
Since it implements the same fix as @jenskirk ‘s solution, there will be no issue for those of us who have updated the plugin manually.
