Same errors on “Save Changes” to any settings page (tab). However I did notice on return to the page (back button), **my settings were indeed saved**. * [mwrusnak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mwrusnak/) * (@mwrusnak) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-when-saving-config-changes/page/2/#post-5521918) * Looks like they are working on it, based on this item in github: * [https://github.com/Yoast/google-analytics-for-wordpress/commit/ec1b43b9ac70611a1d0e15f235d4a584a3863fea](https://github.com/Yoast/google-analytics-for-wordpress/commit/ec1b43b9ac70611a1d0e15f235d4a584a3863fea) * I don’t see anything about when the fix will be released though. * [BAMN](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bamn/) * (@bamn) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-when-saving-config-changes/page/2/#post-5521919) * Thanks unostips!
