 * I’m also seeing this warning after updating to PHP 8.0. Will it be patched? Thank
   you.

 * I just updated a site to PHP 8.1 and am seeing the same error message –so obviously
   not patched as of now. 
   PHP Warning: Undefined array key “exclude_current” in…/
   wp-content/plugins/ultimate-posts-widget/ultimate-posts-widget.php on line 135This
   is a fairly high-traffic website and I’ve only seen this error once so far in
   my logs, so I’m not sure what is triggering it.
