# [Plugin: Testimonials Widget] Warning: Missing argument 2

 * I have loaded the Testimonials Widget as a sidebar widget on a site, and created
   three testimonials that I want to cycle through.
 * The widget displays the testimonials fine, but just above the sidebar heading“
   Testimonials,” the following text is displayed:
 * Warning: Missing argument 2 for standard_process_link_post_format_title() in /
   home/chery/public_html/wp-content/themes/standard/functions.php on line 2743
 * I have no idea what this means, or how to fix it. Suggestions are welcome! 🙂
 * Regards,
    Tara

 * Tara,
 * Your error message is from your theme, not Testimonials Widget. Next, it’s a 
   warning and technically one you can ignore, but it does mean that something isn’t
   right.
 * The best way to fix this is to ask your theme developer to investigate. If you
   still need help, please contact me at [http://typo3vagabond.com/contact-typo3vagabond/](http://typo3vagabond.com/contact-typo3vagabond/).

 * Seems that a “the_title filter fix” was needed.
 * Please try Release 0.2.12.

 * I am having the same problem, but not with this plugin. The theme developer says
   that the second argument is there, so it is a problem with the other plugin that
   is not seeing or finding the second argument.
 * Any further input on how this was fixed?

 * Is it a widget having the trouble? If so, my trouble was using the wrong filter.
   The correct looks like the following.
 * `$title = apply_filters( 'widget_title', $instance['title'], null );`

 * I was having this issue with the premium theme ‘Standard’ and fixed it by changing
   line 2769 of the functions.php theme file to:
 * `add_filter( 'the_title', $title, $id, 'standard_process_link_post_format_title',
   10, 2 );`

 * Tyler, Thank you for the tip. Was there anything further needed?
