# Deprecated error

 * This is showing up on my website. I can’t hide it because it’s not in a div that
   I can reach. It’s a php error. Can you update that?
 * How to Fix the Error
    1. **Locate the file and line number** specified in the error message (e.g., inside
       your Quick Events Manager plugin files).
    2. **Find the code using an increment operator** on a variable that evaluates to
       an empty string, null, or a non-numeric string (such as `$var++` or `$var +=...`).[
       [1](https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/43896)]
    3. **Cast the variable to an integer** before incrementing it, or initialize it
       if it is empty. [[1](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79900753/increment-on-non-numeric-string-is-deprecated-use-str-increment-instead),
