/wp-includes/functions.php – WP_Requirements class not found

  • I’ve recently upgraded to 4.4.

    /wp-content/debug.log shows a lot of these errors for every page:
    [16-Dec-2015 23:29:46 UTC] PHP Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 4.3.0! Use <pre>__construct()</pre> instead. in /home/user/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3619

    This looks like a core file, but I’d expect it not to throw this type of error. Should I assume that the theme is really throwing the error and not this functions.php? Helpful suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    First, try to disable / enable some widgets until you don’t see this error as first emergency solution.

    Second, yes it’s a core file, but widget in your theme try to use something that is not working any more. So basically, you should ask your theme maker or a local WordPress expert to help you troubleshoot this.

    Third, always make backups before upgrading, it’s stated in bold before any upgrade.

    Umm, I beleive Digico meant to say Disable your plugins and see what happens. One of the plugins is probably the culprit.

    A plugin that creates a widget is doing someting wrong and a WordPress file is catching the PHP notice.

    Digico Paris, juggledad,

    I suspected as much. It was a conflicting plugin.

    Excellent! Now, to decide which plugin is more useful…

    Cheers,
