Suggested support code for season taxonomy is throwing an error

Hi @ninaregli,

Sorry to hear you encontered this issue. Could you please confirm that rolling back to the previous plugin version fixes the issue? You can try doing it with WP Rollback plugin.

Best regards,
Serhiy.

Hi @zahardoc,

Thanks for your reply. I tried to rollback, I tried to update unfortunately we still get daily the same error message than I sent you before. Is this something you could have a look again?

As this code is referring to plugin code I don’t really know how to debug it otherwise.

The code is

'capabilities' => ssp_app()->get_service( 'roles_handler' )->get_podcast_tax_capabilities(),

And the error message is Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_podcast_tax_capabilities() on null in /home/helveti3/public_html/wp/wp-content/themes/helvetiarockt/inc/taxonomies/season.php:33

Thanks again for your help, its appreciated.

Hi @ninaregli,

It looks like the problem is not in the plugin itself, but in the theme you use (helvetiarockt). Did you try checking the season.php file? Did you try temporarily switching your theme?

Thanks @zahardoc for your reply.

The season file only contains the code which you provided here https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/create-seasons/

<?php

add_action( 'init', 'ssp_register_seasons', 12 );

function ssp_register_seasons() {

$season_labels = array(

'name' => __( 'Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'singular_name' => __( 'Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'search_items' => __( 'Search Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'all_items' => __( 'All Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Season:', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'update_item' => __( 'Update Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'new_item_name' => __( 'New Season Name', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'menu_name' => __( 'All Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'view_item' => __( 'View Season', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'popular_items' => __( 'Popular Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'separate_items_with_commas' => __( 'Separate podcasts with commas', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'add_or_remove_items' => __( 'Add or remove Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'choose_from_most_used' => __( 'Choose from the most used Seasons', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'not_found' => __( 'No Seasons Found', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'items_list_navigation' => __( 'Seasons list navigation', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

'items_list' => __( 'Seasons list', 'seriously-simple-podcasting' ),

);

$season_args = array(

'public' => true,

'hierarchical' => true,

'labels' => $season_labels,

'show_in_rest' => true,

'show_admin_column' => true,

'capabilities' => ssp_app()->get_service( 'roles_handler' )->get_podcast_tax_capabilities(),

);

register_taxonomy( 'season', ssp_post_types(), $season_args );

}

There is nothing else on this file. Any idea what is wrong with the code?

Hi @ninaregli,

You can try changing the 'capabilities' => ssp_app()->get_service( 'roles_handler' )->get_podcast_tax_capabilities() part of the code to the following:

'capabilities' => array(
'manage_terms' => 'manage_podcast_tax',
'edit_terms' => 'manage_podcast_tax',
'delete_terms' => 'manage_podcast_tax',
'assign_terms' => 'edit_podcast',
),

Hope this helps,
Serhiy.

Thanks @zahardoc it looks liket that will hopefully fix it, thanks so much for your excellent support!

Kind regards

Nina
