Contact Form (Deprecated: Function) error

BigWorld — Tue, 02 Jun 2015 13:44:23 +0000

HI, I just tested the contact form on a site built with the Savia theme and received the Error message below. How can I fix this?

Thanks for your help!

Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in /data/www/html/elaine/wp-content/themes/Savia/contact.php on line 48

You can try substituting it with “preg_match”. Anyway your notices should be off by default just in case…

HI, I will try that. But I am not sure what you mean by ‘your notices should be off by default just in case’. Sorry… can you explain where/how I do that?
Thanks much. BTW, I like the theme a lot.

Hi again,

You set your Notices OFF by default either in your .htaccess file, hosting settings or wp_config.php, ask your webhosting which is best for your specific case.

Hi Elaine,

Simply replace the eregi with preg_match in contact.php.

Also in your wp-config.php make sure you have this:

define('WP_DEBUG', false);

instead of this:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);

that should do it.

Hi again,

Yes, we better wait till you move it, sure.
As far as PHP Notices … I highly doubt YOAST relies on PHP notices… they are just code warnings and notices, here’s an example:

Did you use the debug mode to switch them on/off or in the php.ini or where?
