 * Running v2.9.0 with PHP 7.2 I obtain:
 * _PHP Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements
   Countable in wp-content/plugins/ultimate-social-media-plus/libs/controllers/sfsi\
   _frontpopUp.php on line 188_
 * Line 188 is:
 * `$total=count($custom_icons_order);`
 * It takes data from:
 * `$custom_icons_order = unserialize($sfsi_section5['sfsi_plus_CustomIcons_order']);`
 * Let me know if you need additional information.

 * Thank you for reporting this.
 * On which website (url) do you experience the issue (so that we can see)?
 * If you de-activate error reporting (at the bottom of question 6 in the plugin),
   are the errors gone then?

 * Sample of URL causing the warning is [https://trucoscaseros.epiel.com/](https://trucoscaseros.epiel.com/).
 * Disabling error reporting stops the warning, as expected.

 * Ok, it’s usually safe to switch those errors off because they usually don’t point
   to a serious issue. However, if you want to get to the bottom of it (most likely
   a conflict with your theme), you can get this plugin [https://www.ultimatelysocial.com/usm-premium/](https://www.ultimatelysocial.com/usm-premium/)
   and then we can do a deep-dive… or you just keep suppressing error messages.

 * Disabling errors will hide not seroius issues and also future serious ones, this
   is not a solution.

 * We haven’t come across a case yet where those errors were pointing to a serious
   issue. However, we’re happy to investigate deeper as mentioned above. Or, you
   can ask your theme creator about it (or switch your theme and see if that fixes
   it, if that is an option).

 * I switched theme to Twenty Seventeen and the error continues:
 * AH01071: Got error ‘PHP message: PHP Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array
   or an object that implements Countable in […]wp-content/plugins/ultimate-social-
   media-plus/libs/controllers/sfsi_frontpopUp.php on line 188\n’, referer: [https://trucoscaseros.epiel.com/](https://trucoscaseros.epiel.com/)
 * I don’t want to buy a paid plugin to get support.
