 * I updated a plugin ( ContactUS) and got this back at the same time as the update.
   The update was successful
 * Is this a concern? What do I do about it?
 * Notice: add_option was called with an argument that is deprecated since version
   2.3 with no alternative available. in /home1/XYZ/public_html/wp-includes/functions.
   php on line 3008
 * Notice: wp_register_script was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should 
   not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts,
   or login_enqueue_scripts hooks. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.(
   This message was added in version 3.3.) in /home1/XYZ/public_html/wp-includes/

 * You have a bad plugin or theme. Have you tried:
 * – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause
   problems.

 * mm. thnks for that,
 * The message disappeared and with another update has not reappeared…so maybe to
   do with that plugin. The plugin support says its to do with WP. However if it
   reappears with their next update and no other, it must be an issue of how their
   plugin is interacting with my setup!
 * Right?
