The league table issue is fixed and one of the player-list.php issues, but still have one issue left with the player-list.php.

Warning: Undefined array key “orderby” inH:\root\home\splinters-001\www\splinters\wp-content\plugins\sportspress\includes\widgets\class-sp-widget-player-list.phpon line74

I have some questions about these fixes:

1. Am I the only one that has had these issues? If so, why and if not then why am I the only one that seems to be finding them?
2. I am okay with applying patches to see if it fixes the problem, but if you have a qa environment which you have been testing them yourself then why not an actually release update? You seem to be able to verify what I see which means you were able to reproduce.my issues on your side.
3. I have yet to look at all the functionality offered in the free version. I would like to use the pro version, but afraid that I will find similar issues in other widgets. I don’t know your refund policy, but I rather not pay for pro to find it just as buggy and spend time and effort into helping debug your product.

Thanks you.

I download all the php files in that group on github and replaced them on the server. I restarted the pool and when I looked at the page I still get the following:

Warning: Undefined array key “columns” inH:\root\home\splinters-001\www\splinters\wp-content\plugins\sportspress\includes\widgets\class-sp-widget-league-table.phpon line67

I know none of the php files touched this widget, but I also still get Warning: Undefined array key “orderby” inH:\root\home\splinters-001\www\splinters\wp-content\plugins\sportspress\includes\widgets\class-sp-widget-player-list.phpon line74

and

Warning: Undefined array key “show_all_players_link” inH:\root\home\splinters-001\www\splinters\wp-content\plugins\sportspress\includes\widgets\class-sp-widget-player-list.phpon line76

I am not using any theme and just the widgets. It appears if I don’t include the logo to display the error disappears.

PHP Version: 8.2.12

I did find that one of the errors goes away if I don’t have selected to display the logos. The link below show what it looks like in view mode with logo not selected; still see there is an error.

I think the suggestion of using a staging server is a very poor recommendation considering most of the audience are small businesses with small budgets that are using a single server and not very IT knowledgeable developer. This is probably why most people use WP because a lot of they heavy lifting is already done by the vendors with minimal cost.

WP offers the ability to auto-update plugins which is pointless if vendors are not going to put out fully tested updates. I understand there are hundreds of plugins and it is unfair to believe you will be able to test against them all, but you can and should test against the top 3 designing tools like Elementor.

My comments come from some expertise in this. I was a Software Engineer for 18 years at a Fortune 100 company. I was responsible for designing enterprise size apps and we had 4 servers per app: Design, QA, Production, Failover. We used realtime replication, daily backups with a full one every week and we never were less than 2 minor version back or 1 major version. I would love to have the same setup for my small business website, but the rewards vs risk vs cost makes it prohibited.

1. PHP – 7.4.30
2. WordPress – 6.0.3
3. The Events Calendar – 6.02
4. Theme and Version – Astra 3.9.2
5. Elementor – v3.7.8, Pro v3.7.7

I forget to include that it is all pages that are affected and not only the page where I have the calendar.
