Warning after update WP5.3

I’ve got the same problem on several websites (different hosting, different themes) – just deactivate the W3 Total Cache plugin now and waiting on an upddate.

Hmm, I will for now only stick on with deactivation of “Database Cache” it’s help me.

Same problem here

Warning: Declaration of W3TC\DbCache_Wpdb::prepare($query, $args) should be compatible with wpdb::prepare($query, …$args) in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/DbCache_Wpdb.php on line 8

Hello @spicone @thiartj @josmatic

The fix patch update has just been released addressing the issue. Please update W3 Total Cache to the latest release!
Thank you for your patience!

Thanks.

@vmarko How are we supposed to update our W3 Total Cache when I can’t even get access to my dashboard neither login to the WP dashboard or access it?

Hello @dustinvlok

Please follow the instructions in this post. After you do this you need to update W3 Total Cache and purge all caches
