We are also getting this same error since upgrading to WordPress 5.4 today.
PHP Deprecated: contextual_help is deprecated since version 3.3.0! Use get_current_screen()->add_help_tab(), get_current_screen()->remove_help_tab() instead.
I did a site-wide search and found your plugin uses ‘contextual_help’.
I deactivate SendGrid only, and the error goes away, hence this error is definitely caused by SendGrid.
To correct this change this file
wp-content/plugins/sendgrid-email-delivery-simplified/lib/class-sendgrid-settings.php
Change line 52 to
add_filter( 'current_screen', array( __CLASS__, 'show_contextual_help' ), 10 );
And the show_contextual_help method (starts on line 101)
public static function show_contextual_help()
{
$screen = get_current_screen();
if ( SENDGRID_PLUGIN_STATISTICS == $screen->id or SENDGRID_PLUGIN_SETTINGS == $screen->id ) {
$screen->add_help_tab(
array(
'id' => 'sendgrid_help_tab',
'title' => __( 'Help' ),
'content' => file_get_contents( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/../view/sendgrid_contextual_help.php' )
)
);
}
}
Same error as well. Sendgrid Support has not responded.
Been noticing the same error.
Sent a ticket into SendGrid about this – I’ll update this post if I hear anything.
Well they finally replied to the ticket.
“At this time, our engineering team does not have any plans to update the WordPress plugin or make any additional changes. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.”
Thanks @chrome-orange for the solution.
I deactivated the Sendgrid plugin, and edited the ~/lib/class-sendgrid-settings.php file with the built-in WordPress Plugin Editor with the code from your post (I replaced both line 52 and the show_contextual_help() function code as you outlined), updated the file and reactivated the plugin and it all seems to work now without the error.
