search error message

    I noticed tonight that if I search my own site (http://johnnasta.com/blog) for a term that does not exist on the site, I get this error message:

    Warning: Missing argument 1 for wp_widget_recent_entries() in …path/wp-includes/widgets.php on line 1293

    Warning: extract() [function.extract]: First argument should be an array in …path/wp-includes/widgets.php on line 1300

    For this example I substituted the full path with …path/

    I am not using any widgets on this site. I am using the dfblog theme, which does show recent entries if there are no results. It’s a nice feature but it seems to be causing the error. If I switch to a different theme, the error goes away.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it? Maybe Daniel (the theme author) will see this and respond.

    Thanks

    I heard back from Daniel. He says this will be fixed in the next version but in the meantime users can remove this line:

    <?php wp_widget_recent_entries(); ?>

    from the theme’s index.php line 56, and archive.php line 57

    I let him know that the same code is also in single.php and search.php. I don’t know if either of those has to be deleted.

    You probably could replace that line with this:

    <h2 class="widgettitle">Recent Posts</h2>
<?php get_archives('postbypost', 10); ?>

    I haven’t tried it yet.

    It’s a nice idea, but a bit redundant if you already have the recent posts in your sidebar.

    This topic is solved in the new version 1.1.3 of the theme.
