Don’t panic if you see this type of error. despite the fact that this error will not popup if there is nothing wrong with you wordpress blog or site, there is still a chance for you fix it as if nothing just happened.
Okay now let’s fix.
Quickly log into your server through your FTP and let’s open some couple of files with extreme care in order not to break anything.

function warning_squelch_wpe(int $errno , string $errstr , string $errfile , int $errline , array $errcontext) { if(strstr($errstr, "expected to be a reference")) { return true; // squelch matching warnings } // allow normal handling for non-matching warnings return false; } set_error_handler("warning_squelch_wpe", E_WARNING); |
3. Last thing Open your config.php file in your site directory and paste the below code at the bottom of this file
