So this is the code from the wc-page-functions.php file that is referenced in the error.

$path = wp_parse_url( $item->url, PHP_URL_PATH );
$query = wp_parse_url( $item->url, PHP_URL_QUERY );
if ( strstr( $path, $customer_logout ) || strstr( $query, $customer_logout ) ) {
unset( $items[ $key ] );
}

This is a core file. How can this be a problem with a plugin other than if $item->url is not defined corectly by a plugin? Why not just change line 139 to this:

if ( (!is_null( $path ) && strstr( $path, $customer_logout ) ) || ( !is_null( $query ) && strstr( $query, $customer_logout ) ) ) {

This checks the first parameter in each case of strstr, $path in the first case, and $query in the second, to see if it is null prior to checking with strstr. I did this on my setup and that fixed the error

I don’t use any mailing list plugins. I did install WordFence which didn’t seem to find any major issues. This was the results from the malware scanner.

Serge, So in researching this I found that these emails were being sent to my site users list. I don’t have a lot of registered users, but I did see a bunch of bogus users that got on to the list. I deleted all those users but wondering if maybe I turned something on that caused this. If I did I am not sure where to start looking.

Serge,

I just had another small series of undeliverable emails come in from that message. I am forwarding another screen shot of this.

Serge,

Thank you for the response. I have forwarded a series of emails to you. that I am getting.

So I used your idea of renaming the plugins with an “X” at the beginning of the name to see if I could track down the plugin that was causing the error. Turns out it was the nextgen-gallery plugin. With that plugin folder named Xnextgen-gallery, I can access the plugins page just fine now. I will notify the people at Nextgen to find a resolution.

Thank you for your help.

So after I put the cleantalk folder back, I have noticed that I am getting more and more spam blog posts and user registrations that the cleantalk plugin was monitoring and defeating. I am wondering if now the cleantalk plugin needs to be re-enabled/activated, which I can’t do because I can’t get to the plugins page. This is the complete debug.log, which I think a lot of these entries seem like they are from when I had the plugin folders removed and it couldn’t access files.

Sorry, I meant to mention in my last post that the reason I disabled jetpack was because I searched the error that I saw on my screen and found this link:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/fatal-error-cannot-unset-string-offsets-5/

I figured disabling it to test at least ruled that out.

Removed Jetpack and that didn’t fix it either. Still get the same error when accessing plugins page. Is there a way to just disable plugins instead of having to delete these folders?

Thanks for the help. I transferred that folder locally and then deleted it, but that didn’t help. I still get the same error. I am in the process of trying the same thing with jetpack, but that is quite large so it will take a while. I will post the results.

Is there a reason you mentioned deleting the cleantalk plugin?

So it appears that I get that error in other places in the admin section also. I just tried to go to the edit comments (edit-comments.php) page and got the same error.

I have had both “define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );” and “define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );” set for some time and didn’t realize that I forgot to shut them off last time I needed to debug,so the debug.log file was quite large. I made a backup of that file and started from a fresh one. The only thing I see in there after attempts to go to the plugins page is this entry:

WordPress database error Table ‘dan_bemowski_info_2.wp_6ts9ct_cleantalk_sessions’ doesn’t exist for query DELETE
FROM wp_6ts9ct_cleantalk_sessions
WHERE last_update < NOW() – INTERVAL 172800 SECOND; made by require_once(‘wp-load.php’), require_once(‘wp-config.php’), require_once(‘wp-settings.php’), include_once(‘/plugins/cleantalk-spam-protect/cleantalk.php’), apbct_update_actions, apbct_run_update_actions, apbct_update_to_5_118_0

I don’t think that came from the plugins page load because I would see that entry every time I try to load the plugins page, but I don’t. I think that is just coming from the cleantalk plugin. I would reinstall the plugin to fix that error, but with not being able to get to the plugins page I can’t. I still get the same error when trying to access the plugins page though even dropping back to PHP 7.2:

Error thrown
Cannot unset string offsets

So the debug.log file doesn’t seem to be telling me anything in regards to that error.

I can do that.

Mihai,

You must have missed my last message.

Eric, can you email me. I just need an email address to create the user on the website. I also need a place to send you your password.
