Hello,
I get this notification when I scan my site: Notice : Undefined index: description in /home/bfrstfi/www/wp-content/plugins/envato-market/inc/class-envato-market-api.php on line 384
What should I do?
Thanks

Have you tried to update the extension if there’s a newer version?

3

Yes, the latest version is installed.

I have this issue too - a warning comes up in the Wordpress admin Warning: Undefined array key “description” … line 384

Update the plugin

I’m using version 2.0.8-- as far as I can tell, that’s the latest. The error occurs on this line

‘description’ => self::remove_non_unicode( strip_tags( $plugin[‘wordpress_plugin_metadata’][‘description’] ) ),

I was wondering-- all the other lines in that array start with ( ! empty
except this one

Yeah, it looks like they forgot to wrap that line in an empty() check like the rest… oops! I’ll submit a pull request to fix it later, but I honestly wouldn’t expect it to get merged in for a few months at best. :eyes:

Perhaps you can silence warnings in your dashboard for now? It’s mostly guaranteed that they won’t become errors until PHP 9 or later, after all. Or, if you’re comfortable changing the plugin’s code, you can replace the line with this atrocity:

'description' => ( ! empty( $plugin['wordpress_plugin_metadata']['description'] ) ? self::remove_non_unicode( strip_tags( $plugin['wordpress_plugin_metadata']['description'] ) ) : '' ),

Thank you. Yes I think that’s fine for now. I haven’t seen any errors on the front end.

This error is still happening even though there was more than one plugin update since then. Again, no problems on user side but annoying warnings on WP admin side.
