This tutorial will show you how to fix the following warning at your admin panel:\r\n Warning: array_merge()…<\/strong> It usually looks like: <\/p>\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>\r\n\r\n

1. First of all, you need to look at the file mentioned file in the warning message. As you can see in the example it is:<\/p>\r\n

\/home\/mgreen\/public_html\/adrian\/osc\/admin\/customers.php<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Open the mentioned file and find the following text (there can be several lines with this text):<\/p>\r\n

array_merge()<\/pre>\r\n\r\n
 In the example file customers.php<\/strong> you will find the following  code:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\n\t$customer_info = array_merge($country, $info, $reviews);\r\n\t$cInfo_array = array_merge($customers, $customer_info);\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n
2. You need to update all the code with array_merge.<\/strong> Add (array) text before each of $ symbols.  So, it should become:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\n\t$customer_info = array_merge((array)$country, (array)$info, (array)$reviews);\r\n\t$cInfo_array = array_merge((array)$customers, (array)$customer_info);\r\n<\/pre>\r\n    \r\n  
You should do the same for all code with array_merge.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n  \r\n
Note: The behaviour of array_merge()<\/strong> was modified in PHP 5.  Unlike PHP 4, array_merge()<\/strong> now only accepts parameters of type array. However, you can use typecasting to merge  other types.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
3. Here is the list of files which should be edited in such cases:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
