Hi everyone,
The solution described here by jschuur worked for me!
See Issue 114: Depreciated pass-by-reference causes warnings when using PHP5
“Removing the ampersands from both Auth_OpenID::update() calls in question seemed to
remove the warning and not cause any further harm.”
I am having exactly the same problem on http://www.joanko.net, using WordPress 2.7 and OpenID plugin 3.2.1. I cannot find anyone discussing it on the net.
Any solutions would be much appreciated.
