Been updating an old but one of my favorite unsupported plugins. I have made all the functions current and the plugin works well just a couple bugs to fix when running in define('WP_DEBUG', true);
So this plugin try's to load defaults but I get errors creating a new widget weather or not there is a default ad. I have been searching for a better way to do this with no luck. The problem is the $instance['name']
remains undefined until the widget is saved. would appreciate any help Thank You
Errors I Get one instance of this
Notice: Undefined index: name in /var/www/public_html/wp-content/plugins/advertising-manager/lib/Advman/Widget.php on line 56
I get this for each result
Notice: Undefined index: name in /var/www/public_html/wp-content/plugins/advertising-manager/lib/Advman/Widget.php on line 58
