It happens when I open up the “More types” from settings in sidebar. “Warning: in_array() [function. in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/hs0cgfpq/public_html/wp- content/plugins/more-types/more-types-settings.php on line 291” * Any Ideas? * [admazy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/admazy/) * (@admazy) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936263) * any fix? * [mediaperfection](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mediaperfection/) * (@mediaperfection) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936304) * Try This: Paste the following code after line 182 in more-types-object.php: $options[‘show_in_menu’] = true; $options[‘capability_type’] = ‘post’; * [http://more-plugins.se/forum/topic/more-types-new-post-type-not-appearing-on-left-side-admin-menu](http://more-plugins.se/forum/topic/more-types-new-post-type-not-appearing-on-left-side-admin-menu) * Thread Starter [dgodfather](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dgodfather/) * (@dgodfather) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936307) * So this should be line 183 & 184 respectively? * [jay-august](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jay-august/) * (@jay-august) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936363) * Although not a perfect fix, I did manage to get rid of the error by editing ` more-type-settings.php` from line 285 – 296 to this: * ``` $tax = array(); $stax = array(); $mytax = $more_types_settings->get_val('taxonomies'); foreach($wp_taxonomies as $taxonomy) { if (!trim($taxonomy->label)) continue; $tax[$taxonomy->name] = $taxonomy->label; if(is_array($mytax)) { if (in_array($taxonomy->name, $mytax)) $stax[] = $taxonomy; } else { $stax[] = NULL; } } ``` * This is =not= a perfect fix, but it did got rid of the error. I’m not 100% sure how your custom taxonomies will respond to this! * [jay-august](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jay-august/) * (@jay-august) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936365) * Errr… don’t do this 🙂 It will wreck your site, sorry. * [TrevorNet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trevornet/) * (@trevornet) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936483) * This worked for me. And by worked, I mean the errors are not showing up and the plug-in continues to work. Right above more-types-settings.php >> 291… * ``` if(!isset($mytax)) { $mytax = array(); } else if(!is_array($mytax)) { settype($mytax, "array"); } ``` * This should not interfere with the plug-in (I think) as we are simply forcing $mytax into an array-type. If $mytax already exists as an array, nothing will change. The original in_array() test on 291 will have the proper conditions needed to complete it’s task. * Thread Starter [dgodfather](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dgodfather/) * (@dgodfather) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936486) * Thanks TrevorNet, that does get rid of the errors for sure. I’ll let you know if I run across other errors. * [Tammy Hart](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tammyhart/) * (@tammyhart) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936575) * Working for me here.

So the above block of code now looks like this: * > $tax = array(); > $stax = array(); $mytax = $more_types_settings->get_val(‘ > taxonomies’); foreach($wp_taxonomies as $taxonomy) { if (!trim($taxonomy->label)) > continue; $tax[$taxonomy->name] = $taxonomy->label; if(!isset($mytax)) { $mytax > = array(); } else if(!is_array($mytax)) { settype($mytax, “array”); } if (in_array( > $taxonomy->name, $mytax)) $stax[] = $taxonomy; } * [rajaito](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rajaito/) * (@rajaito) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/#post-1936614) * [@awpile](https://wordpress.org/support/users/awpile/) – this worked for me : 0) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 19 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘[Plugin: More Types] Wrong datatype?’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/more-types.svg) * [More Types](https://wordpress.org/plugins/more-types/) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/more-types/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/more-types/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/more-types/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/more-types/reviews/) * 19 replies * 17 participants * Last reply from: [potel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/potel/) * Last activity: [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-more-types-wrong-datatype/page/2/#post-1936670) * Status: not resolved
