Problem: I’m facing an issue with my WordPress website where I’m getting the error “Array array array” when trying to display an array. I’ve tried various methods to format and output the array correctly, but the error persists.
Need Help With:
- Identifying the specific cause of the error.
- Understanding how to properly handle and display nested arrays in WordPress.
- Finding effective solutions or code examples to resolve this issue.
If anyone has encountered a similar problem or has experience in resolving array-related errors in WordPress, please share your insights and suggestions.
I am not able to login to the backend. My hosting company says that their is a fatal error with the IMPREZA theme
“WordPress has a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email.
In this case, WordPress caught an error with your theme, Impreza…”
“Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wp_system_query_script() (previously declared in /hermes/bosnacweb07/bosnacweb07ae/b2128/ipg.xamiinccom/AdvBakes/wp-content/themes/Impreza/functions.php:44) in /hermes/bosnacweb07/bosnacweb07ae/b2128/”
I asked ChatGPT how to fix. (NOTE: I HAVE NOT TRIED IT YET):
The error message you received indicates that there’s a conflict in your WordPress theme’s code. Specifically, the function wp_system_query_script()
has been declared twice, which is causing the “Fatal error: Cannot redeclare” message.
Here’s what you can do to resolve the issue:
1. Access Your Website via FTP or File Manager:
- Use an FTP client like FileZilla or access the file manager through your hosting control panel (e.g., cPanel).
- Navigate to
/wp-content/themes/Impreza/functions.php
.
2. Edit the functions.php
File:
- Open the
functions.php
file in a code editor.
- Search for the function
wp_system_query_script()
.
- You’ll likely find that this function has been declared twice. Remove or comment out one of the declarations.
- Make sure only one instance of the function exists.
3. Save Changes:
- After editing the file, save the changes and re-upload the file to the server (if you’re using an FTP client).
- Clear your browser cache and try accessing the WordPress backend again.
4. Disable the Theme Temporarily (if needed):
- If you’re unable to resolve the issue via the above steps, you can temporarily disable the theme to regain access to the WordPress dashboard.
- Rename the
Impreza
theme folder (e.g., Impreza-old
).
- WordPress will automatically revert to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-Three.
- Once you have access, you can fix the issue and then rename the theme folder back to
Impreza
.
5. Contact Theme Support:
- If the issue persists, it might be a bug in the theme. Contact the Impreza theme support team for assistance, as they might provide a fix or a theme update.
After following these steps, you should be able to access the backend of your WordPress site without encountering the fatal error."
ChatGPT’s instructions for fixing the wp_system_query_script
error should be correct.
However, in case anyone else stumbles upon this - I found a wp_system_query_script()
script within a site’s functions.php
that appeared to be the result of our website getting hacked; its effect was to inject some JavaScript that redirected visitors to scam or ad sites.
You may want to inspect the wp_system_query_script()
function to see if it appears to be malicious, or compare it with a fresh copy of the Impreza theme to see if it’s supposed to be there.
