   have to have the login info to my site to see the page.

 * Hi [@kwooduwcv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kwooduwcv/),
 * Do you know which PHP version you are using?

 * Hope you don’t mind me adding to this thread. Or if you want me to start a new
   thread let me know.
 * I am also having the same issue. I am currently using PHP version: 5.4.45 – used
   Jonathan’s code from this page to remove the json_encode and it seemed to have
   cleared up: [https://ideas.time.ly/ideas/CAL-I-432](https://ideas.time.ly/ideas/CAL-I-432).
   Not sure what if any impact there is by taking the code out, so wondering if 
   that’s okay.
    Before changing the code I also did a reinstall WordPress 4.8.2.
   Dashboard, Updates, Re-install Now. That didn’t help and continued getting the
   error, hence the code change.
 * Thanks for any insight.

 * Okay, I think I found the answer. As mentioned above, the PHP version was 5.4.45.
   
   I found a clue about upgrading the PHP version to 5.6+: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-arrays-are-not-allowed-in-class-constants/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-arrays-are-not-allowed-in-class-constants/)
 * I upgraded the PHP version to 5.6+, put back the json_encode code back into the
   file and cleared cached. Tested, and I am not seeing the error right now. Hurray!
 * I believe the answer is upgrade the PHP to 5.6+.

 * [@skippywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skippywp/), I am glad you find
   a way through the issue 🙂
 * [@kwooduwcv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kwooduwcv/), please upgrade 
   PHP if not already.
 * Take care,
    Ben

 * Although I thought upgrading the PHP to 5.6.30 fixed the issue, but when I logged
   into the site today and wanted to add a new event, the error was back on the “
   page”:
    /wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=ai1ec_eventdetails.
 * The error: Warning: http_build_query(): Parameter 1 expected to be Array or Object.
   Incorrect value given in /wp-includes/Requests/Transport/cURL.php on line 508
 * It hasn’t impacted the site as far as I can tell, but it would be helpful to 
   know of any other suggestions to clear this up.
 * Thanks,
    Skippywp
