WordPress Fix PHP coding with Theme

[ad_1]

I have a client that asked me to see about fixing their website. I am not a web designer or a expert on wordpress and php but took a look.

The page has two error codes after updating PHP. Currently can’t update the website any further without breaking due to the custom theme itself.

I took a look at the errors on the home page and it shows the following:

Deprecated: Function create\_function() is deprecated

I found the line for the path that it shows. How do I fix the below code to get rid of this error.

// Immediate Return Function
function laborator_immediate_return_fn( $return ) {
$return_fn = ‘return “‘ . addslashes( $return ) . ‘”;’;

if ( is_numeric( $return ) ) {
$return_fn = “return {$return};”;
}

return create_function( ”, $return_fn );
}

and the other error for one of the plugins:

Deprecated: The each() function is deprecated. This message will be suppressed on further calls

Other error:
protected function callActivities() {
do_action( ‘vc_mapper_call_activities_before’ );
while ( $activity = each( $this->init_activity ) ) {
list( $object, $method, $params ) = $activity[1];
if ( ‘mapper’ === $object ) {
switch ( $method ) {
case ‘map’:
WPBMap::map( $params[‘tag’], $params[‘attributes’] );
break;
case ‘drop_param’:
WPBMap::dropParam( $params[‘name’], $params[‘attribute_name’] );
break;
case ‘add_param’:
WPBMap::addParam( $params[‘name’], $params[‘attribute’] );
break;
case ‘mutate_param’:
WPBMap::mutateParam( $params[‘name’], $params[‘attribute’] );
break;
case ‘drop_all_shortcodes’:
WPBMap::dropAllShortcodes();
break;
case ‘drop_shortcode’:
WPBMap::dropShortcode( $params[‘name’] );
break;
case ‘modify’:
WPBMap::modify( $params[‘name’], $params[‘setting_name’], $params[‘value’] );
break;
}
}
}
}

Trying to see if rewriting the code it referring to would get rid of the warning error lines on this homepage. Any assistance would be appreciated.
