PHP Deprecated Warning in etranslation-multilingual Plugin

    Hello WEB-T Support Team,

    I am writing to report a recurring error that is filling up my server’s PHP error log. The issue seems to originate from the etranslation-multilingual plugin.

    The specific error I am seeing is an E_DEPRECATED notice related to the str_replace() function. Here is the exact log entry:

    [11-Oct-2025 13:49:33 UTC] E_DEPRECATED: str_replace(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($search) of type array|string is deprecated in /home/rurifule/www/zathletix.ch/wp-content/plugins/etranslation-multilingual/includes/class-url-converter.php on line 578

    This indicates that the plugin is using an outdated function call that is no longer recommended in modern versions of PHP (like PHP 8.1+).

    While this is not a fatal error that breaks the site, it creates a lot of “noise” in the error logs, making it difficult to spot more serious issues. It also suggests that the plugin might face compatibility problems with future PHP updates.

    Could you please look into this and release a patch in a future update to address this deprecated code usage?

    Thank you for your time and support.

    Best regards,

    Peter
