Warning: Count () parameter

Hi @spartaq!

That error message shows up on PHP7.2, because we couldn’t release a new version yet with the fixes for this PHP version. As I see you are using Joomla, not WordPress, so I uploaded the free Joomla installer here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5xb3fa99yfsttg9/nextend-smart-slider3-joomla.zip?dl=0
but if you would have the pro, please rather write to us to [email protected]

You can just simply install it as you did the first time:
https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/138-joomla-installation#upload

About curl, if you still see the problem after installation, please create a PHP file and write this in it:

<?php
// create curl resource 
$ch = curl_init();

// set url 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://secure.nextendweb.com/wp-login.php");

//return the transfer as a string 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

$errorFile = dirname(__FILE__) . '/curl_error.txt';
$out       = fopen($errorFile, "w");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_STDERR, $out);

// $output contains the output string 
$output = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);
fclose($out);

echo "<h1>LOG</h1>";
echo "<pre>";
echo htmlspecialchars(file_get_contents($errorFile));
unlink($errorFile);
echo "</pre>";

echo "<h1>RESPONSE</h1>";
echo "<pre>";
echo htmlspecialchars($output);
echo "</pre>";

then check it in your browser, like: https://localhost/curltest.php
and please send me a screenshot of the result to [email protected]

Thank you, updated version of SS3 for Joomla worked for me. And no more CURL issues. Thank you much.
