Hello,
The company website that I manage has begun generating errors today on any pages that containing an event table template. Here is a sample of the shortcake we have been using without issue for several years…
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE template_file = espresso-events-table-template-toggle.template.php table_style=”metro” category_slug=camp category_filter=false order_by=start_date table_search=false table_pages=10]
Thanks for your help…!

sigh… so “shortcake” is intended to be “shortcode”…

Hi,
We received your request for priority support. The error message actually indicates the cause is some out-of-date custom code in the child theme. We can take a look at updating that code.

Is this what you need below? This is from the espresso-events-table-template-toggle.template.php file that I see in the theme file editor. (I do not recall exactly what was altered in this file, I think I got this code from you guys to resolve an issue with the theme template…):

Hi,
I did not need that because you did send access to the site 🙂
The coding errors were fixed so you’re good to go now. The reason the coding errors were OK before is because PHP 5 was more loosey-goosey compared to PHP 7. So quite likely your site was updated to PHP 7 (a good thing) but as part of that upgrade any non-compatible with PHP 7 code needs to be updated.

Thank you sooooooo much, you guys rock! Just for my knowledge, will you let me know which part of the code needed to be updated?

There was a variable initialized as a string (e.g. $variable_name = '';) then two lines later it was expected to be an array (e.g. $variable_name[]). So the variable needs to be initialized as an array (e.g. $variable_name = array();)
