    tested locally on WP4.3 with just the Yet Another Related Posts Plugin active and the last version of Twenty Fifteen and got this error on the debug:

    Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is deprecated since version 4.3.0! Use __construct() instead. in /Users/xxx/Sites/cityburns/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3457

    Is it going to be fixed soon?

    thanks!

  • It should be updated by the plugin team! Here is a list of incompatible plugins: https://gist.github.com/chriscct7/d7d077afb01011b1839d

    Seeing the same, looks like it might be the parent::WP_WIdget call on line 9 of: /plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin/classes/YARPP_Widget.php

    These are the constructor calls which are flagged according to the gist @luciendub posted above:

    WP_Widget::WP_Widget()
    parent::WP_Widget()
    {object}->WP_Widget()

    Temporary fix : change line 9 in yet-another-related-posts-plugin/classes/YARPP_Widget.php

    from
    parent::WP_Widget(false, 'Related Posts (YARPP)', array('description' => 'Related Posts and/or Sponsored Content'));

    to
    parent::__construct(false, 'Related Posts (YARPP)', array('description' => 'Related Posts and/or Sponsored Content'));

    Hi unclego,

    thanks for the Solution with the YARPP PlugIn. I changed the Code as described and now the PLugin YARPP works again with WP 4.3.0

    Thanks again and regards,
    Markus

    Still, the fix should come from the official devs of the plugin. But nothing.

    Not good.

    it is incredible the time that it takes to release the fixed new version when the fix is actually quite simple. :/ any alternatives to this plugin?

    https://relatedpostsforwp.com legit known developers are behind this. Lite version at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/related-posts-for-wp/

    Not even close to YARP, cripleware i would say.

    While I agree getting the Widget stuff updated is a good thing to do, this is hardly a reason to raise torches and pitchforks over. It’s only a PHP notice, not a warning or fatal error.

    Of course not torches and pitchforks. But wp-content/debug.log is a valuable thing. By cluttering it up with tons of crap, you waste a lot people’s time around the world, trying to deliver projects with your plugin.

    it’s sad to say it, but ignoring this posts and the little fix the users here are requiring, the authors ares showing a huge lack of consideration for the users and the wordpress community, the ones that everyday help YARP to become one of the greatest plugins out there. :/

    we would love to have a reply and a solution. and i don’t think we are asking too much. ??

    keep it up YARPP!

    Switched to Yuzo Related Posts.

    bye.

    Thanks for the suggestion. Will consider the same. Any other alternatives?

    @massimod, thanks for the suggestion, better alternative as well.
