 * I’m getting a set of notices in the “Site Language” section of General Settings:
 *     ```
       Notice: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /var/www/html/example/wp-content/plugins/ssh-sftp-updater-support/class-wp-filesystem-ssh2.php on line 263

 * These look like PHP 7.4 issues, but I’m not certain how to resolve them. Any 
   advice? Thanks!

 * This is not related to PHP 7.4; it is triggered by having a plugin or theme which
   uses the WP_Filesystem API incorrectly: specifically, it requests to set up a
   connection and then ignores the result (trying to use the connection after it
   failed to set up). To resolve this you need to ask your web hosting company how
   to get PHP to log the full trace (not just the final message), and see which 
   plugin/theme it is coming through.
