 * Upgrading a site to PHP 8 I’ve found the following errors from the Social Media
   Share Buttons & Social Sharing Icons plugin
 *     ```
       Deprecated: Required parameter $icon follows optional parameter $url in /var/www/html/web/wp-content/plugins/ultimate-social-media-icons/libs/controllers/sfsi_socialhelper.php on line 490

 * Hi [@lstreng](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lstreng/), thanks for reporting
   this! We will fix the issue in the next plugin’s release. For now you can disable
   debugging by setting WP_DEBUG = 0

 * Excellent, thanks [@karolinauv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karolinauv/).
 * There’s one more I found:
 *     ```
       Required parameter $shortcode follows optional parameter $isFloter in /var/www/html/web/wp-content/plugins/ultimate-social-media-icons/libs/sfsi_widget.php:115
       ```

 * We’re aware of it and will release a new plugin version with the fix. If you 
   want to fix it immediately, either switch error reporting off, or install this
   plugin wiht the fix:
