 * Greetings,
 * I am not (by any stretch of the imagination) a Wordpess expert. But for some 
   reason my site started showing this message the other day after I installed the
   latest version of WordPress (4.2-alpha-31181).
 * **Warning: explode() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given in /home/acguseradmin/
   public_html/wp-includes/functions.wp-scripts.php on line 207**
 * This is line 207:
 * ** $_handle = explode( ‘?’, $handle );**
 * I have been searching online for what to do or change but have had little success.
   The site is set to go public on Monday, January 19 (firm launch date), and I 
   really don’t want any issues when things get rolling.
 * Any help would be appreciated.

 * If your site is going public Monday, I strongly suggest that you *not* use an
   alpha build.
 * Alpha builds are still under active development and may have random issues as
   they are built, and aren’t even recommended for public beta testing (and as such
   may have incompatible plugins and themes too). They are strictly reference copies
   for the work in progress.
 * Stick with the current release of WordPress 4.1, and you’ll be much happier on
   Monday. 🙂
 * To downgrade, just [download WordPress](https://wordpress.org/download/) again
   and delete then replace your copies of everything **except** the `wp-config.php`
   file and the `/wp-content/` directory with fresh copies from the download. This
   will effectively replace all of your core files without damaging your content
   and settings. Some uploaders tend to be unreliable when overwriting files, so
   don’t forget to delete the original files before replacing them.
