If you've upgraded to php 5 on your server you may have seen some of your plug-in's and add-ons throwing errors like this:

Quote:
Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /index.php(486) : eval()'d code on line 79
This is a common error, we updated our server to php 5 yesterday and I've already seen the error come up twice for two plug-ins on our forum. Another site on the server is running vBadvanced, its news module also threw the same error.

The reason this came up is due to a change in the way array_merge works in php 5. Basically it will no longer accept anything but an array without throwing an error. Thankfully it's just an 'incorrect usage' error and our code still works as it should, it just throws an error now.

The correct way to fix this is not using array merge with anything but arrays. However we already have a lot of code lying around doing things like this:

PHP Code:
$var = 'option1';
$array = array('option2', 'option3', 'option4');

$array = array_merge($var, $array); 
Obviously most of us aren't looking to re-write some of this code just so it works under php 5. Thankfully there is a very simple fix for this that won't force us to change much of anything.

Just change your code so it looks like this:

PHP Code:
$var = 'option1';
$array = array('option2', 'option3', 'option4');

$array = array_merge((array)$var, $array); 
Notice the (array) next to $var now? That is the only change needed. Your code should now work under php 5 and no longer throw array_merge errors.

I've found the plug-in causing the error. I opened it saw an array and did as instructed above, but still received the same error.

Can anyone help me with this please?

Here is the code within the plug-in:
Code:
if($vbulletin->options['siteteam_active'] == 1) { 
                    $userid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];  
                    $languageid = $vbulletin->userinfo['languageid']; 
                    $user = $vbulletin->db->query_first_slave(" 
                        SELECT language.phrasegroup_siteteam AS phrasegroup_siteteam 
                        FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user AS user 
                        LEFT JOIN ".TABLE_PREFIX."language AS language  
                            ON (language.languageid = " . (!empty($languageid) ? $languageid : "IF(user.languageid = 0, " . intval($vbulletin->options['languageid']) . ", user.languageid)") . ") 
                        WHERE user.userid = $userid 
                    "); 
                    $tmp = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_siteteam"]); 
                    $vbphrase = array_merge($vbphrase, $tmp);

                $limit = $vbulletin->options['siteteam_count']; 
                $teamarray = $vbulletin->db->query_read("

                    $footer = '<br />'.$meetteams.$footer; 
                }
Try changing this:
$tmp = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_siteteam"]);
to this:
$tmp[] = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_siteteam"]);

You have to feed it an array in order for you not to get an error.

I am still getting this error:

Code:
Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/functions.php(1259) : eval()'d code on line 5
Im confused as to how to fix it. I tried doing this below but it did not work:

Try changing this in the plugin named "Show Meet our team at forum home page":

$tmp = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_siteteam"]);

To this:

$tmp[] = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_siteteam"]);


I know that the error began and is caused by the plugin called "Site Team Version 1.1.0 for VB version 3.6.8

Where or what do I look for to edit and in which files to fix this error or stop it from being thrown. The Plugin actually functions, I just get the error code seen at the top of the forum page. If I turn off the SiteTeam plugin or make it in-active then the error goes away. It also started giving me that error right after I installed the plugin "SiteTeam v1.1.0" so I am certain that this is where the problem lies correct?

So what exactly do I edit to fix this? Im very confused.

Thank you!

index.php(539)

Your error is the code evaluated on line 539. That will tell you what Hook Location it is. then you need to go to the Plugin Manager and find a Plugin with this Hook Location. Goto to line 264 of the Plugin and your error should be present. (If you have more then one Plugin at that hook disable them and enable them one by one to find out which of them is causing the error, (n.b. the line number of the eval()'d code may change at this point).

Many thanks. Your help showed me the plugin that caused this: "Just join us" in Forumhome affected the hook location forumhome_complete.

How do I find line 264 of the plugin?

here is the content of the plugin:
PHP Code:
if($vbulletin->options['justjoin_active'] == 1) {
                    $userid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid']; 
                    $languageid = $vbulletin->userinfo['languageid'];
                    $user = $vbulletin->db->query_first_slave("
                        SELECT language.phrasegroup_justjoin AS phrasegroup_justjoin
                        FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user AS user
                        LEFT JOIN ".TABLE_PREFIX."language AS language 
                            ON (language.languageid = " . (!empty($languageid) ? $languageid : "IF(user.languageid = 0, " . intval($vbulletin->options['languageid']) . ", user.languageid)") . ")
                        WHERE user.userid = $userid
                    ");
                    $tmp = unserialize($user["phrasegroup_justjoin"]);
                    $vbphrase = array_merge((array)$vbphrase, $tmp);
                
                require_once('includes/functions_user.php');
                require_once('includes/functions_bigthree.php');

                $limit = $vbulletin->options['justjoin_count'];
                $joinus = $vbulletin->db->query_read(" 
                  SELECT *
                  FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user
                        WHERE usergroupid=2
                  ORDER BY joindate DESC
                  LIMIT $limit
                "); 
                while ($team = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($joinus)){
            $avatarurl = fetch_avatar_url($team['userid']);
              if (!$avatarurl) {
                         $teamavatar = 'images/misc/noavatar.gif';
                    } else     {
                       $teamavatar = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $avatarurl[0];
                    }
                        $userinfo = verify_id('user', $team['userid'], 1, 1);
                      $userinfo['lastactivitydate'] = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity'], true);
                    $userinfo['lastactivitytime'] = vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity']);
                      $useronline = fetch_online_status($userinfo, true);
                    $userinfo['onlinestatuskey'] = $userinfo['onlinestatus'];
                    $totalcount ++;
                    eval('$justjoinbits .= "' . fetch_template('justjoin_joinbits') . '";');
                } 
                unset($teamarray);
                eval('$justjoin .= "' . fetch_template('justjoin_main') . '";');
                    $footer = '<br />'.$justjoin.$footer;
                } 
I assume it is due to this line:
PHP Code:
$vbphrase = array_merge($vbphrase, $tmp); 
How can I fix this?
