Fatal Error Notifications from WordPress

  • I have received several of these messages in recent days. Haven’t actually had any issues logging in or with site performance/rendering, yet. Nothing has changed server side. Wondering what to do/how to fix. Plugin is temporarily deactivated to prevent issues.
    /*`Howdy!

    Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email.

    In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, Limit Login Attempts Reloaded.

    First, visit your website (XXXXXX) and check for any visible issues. Next, visit the page where the error was caught (XXXXXX) and check for any visible issues.

    Please contact your host for assistance with investigating this issue further.

    If your site appears broken and you can’t access your dashboard normally, WordPress now has a special “recovery mode”. This lets you safely login to your dashboard and investigate further.

    To keep your site safe, this link will expire in 1 day. Don’t worry about that, though: a new link will be emailed to you if the error occurs again after it expires.

    When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following information:
    WordPress version 5.8
    Current theme: XXXX
    Current plugin: Limit Login Attempts Reloaded (version 2.23.1) PHP version 8.0.3

  • I had the same error once every day.

    The problem is this line:

    $data[‘unlocked’] = true;

    $data is sometimes not an array, so a quick fix is to insert this lines directly before line 1487:
    if(!is_array($data)){
    continue;
    }

    But this may cause other problems, so as I said, it’s just a quick fix, and the developer should really look into this.

    Yes, please fix this problem! ??
