# Growing PHP Error Log

 * Hello,
 * I use Admin Menu Editor on all WP websites that I build.
 * Recently, all of my websites show a growing PHP error_log file,
   with the same
   line repeating over and over:
 * `PHP Warning: Undefined array key "parent" in
   /public_html/wp-content/plugins/
   admin-menu-editor/includes/menu-editor-core.php on line 1922
 * I’ve been seeing this now for a couple months, and am hoping you might provide
   an update to fix the issue.
 * Thank You!

 * It looks like this warning was already reported a while ago, but I never figured
   out what exactly caused it. It hasn’t shown up in any of my tests. Still, I’ll
   add a small workaround in the next update that should prevent it.
 * If you don’t want to wait for the update, you could try the development version
   which already includes the patch:

 * Hi Janis,
 * Thank you very much the considerate reply.
 * Also, BTW – I admire and appreciate your plugin greatly…
   it has helped me to 
   deliver WP sites with clean and well-organized admin areas for many years now.
 * I note that the PHP errors seem to only show up for installations using PHP 8.1
   or higher.
 * I will be happy to email you credentials to review 1 or more sites where I can
   see the issue occurring if you’d like to look into the cause/effect, if you can
   let me know how/where to send it.
 * Thank You

 * Thanks, it’s good to hear you like the plugin!
 * I think the upcoming fix will likely be good enough as-is, but if you still see
   the same issue with the next update – or if it causes some new error – then it
   might be useful for me to take a look at your site(s). You can then send me the
   details using [this contact form](https://adminmenueditor.com/contact/) (it goes
   to my email).
