To add:
Half of the functions will not display.
I can not pick font size, etc.
An update to remove the warning message will appear soon.
Meantime, you can ensure that on your live environment you’re not outputting these warnings by ensuring error_reporting is set to E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE:
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
Which half of the functions do not display? The widget doesn’t advertise that it provides a “font size, etc” option, and this isn’t included in the WordPress Editor by default.
Hi, I do have this message too.
Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /wp/wp-content/plugins/rich-text-sidebar-widget/rich-text-sidebar-widget.php on line 52.
I could of course ajust my error level, but I wont, because I need to know what’s wrong on my website. An error, even a notice, should be traited, not hidden.
** Meantime, you can ensure that on your live environment you’re not outputting these warnings by ensuring error_reporting is set to E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE:
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); **
I like the thought, but I would not recommend this action. I say this because if the folks who develop PHP, one day, decide to make some of those conditions “critical errors”, due to deprecating certain methods, this would become a “stopper” instead of just a “warning”.
Also, to add to “Lorem Ipsum’s” thoughts above, I would rather not disable the error-level warnings because I use those messages to help me clean up my own code.
As to the non-implementation of a font-select option, I know this can be done through PHP and HTML on the widget side. This may become a desired feature, based on the feedback from other users. This would have little effect as far as the WordPress install is concerned. It was just a “floating of ideas”. Also, the Tiny MCE portion does, in fact, support font-selection.
Anyway, I have found the plugin that best suits my purposes. All projects evolve over time, so I look forward to what features will become in future releases. 🙂
