Warning: parse_url() expects parameter 1 to be string

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Warning: parse_url() expects parameter 1 to be string

  • Josh 9 years, 9 months ago

    Need an assist. When I install the FV Player plugin, I get the following error message in my template:

    Warning: parse_url() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/fernan87/public_html/wp-content/plugins/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/includes/extra-functions.php on line 62

    When I deactivate the plugin, template works fine. Something in this plugin is obviously colliding. I also upgraded to PRO, but that did not help.

    I deactivated each plugin on my site and see a collision with the “Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields” plugin that is causing this. I need that plugin, so not sure how to address this.

    Hello Josh,

    I installed “Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields” and I’m not seeing the issue. I can’t imagine what could cause this warning.

    Could you please post the exact [fvplayer] shortcode you are using?

    Thanks,
    Martin

    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[fvplayer src="https://youtu.be/FCw0uQQJQog" autoplay="true" lightbox="true;128;72;"]‘); ?>

    Hello Fernando,

    I’m not sure what could be the error here.

    In the meantime, please make sure you are not using WP_DEBUG – check your wp-config.php and make sure it’s not enabled: https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

    It might also depend on your web host – you should be able to ask your server support to disable displaying of PHP errors and warnings.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    I’m getting that same error

    Martin 9 years ago

    Hello William,

    so you are using the Pods plugin as well? Could you please describe the required setup we need to do to reproduce the error?

    If you just want this fixed on your site quickly, you can order our pro support: http://foliovision.com/pro-support

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Here is the export file from pods that you can use to import.

    There is nothing special.
    For posts two fields are created. Byline and Premium
    For users there are some additional fields, Address/phone etc

    That is all I have it doing.

    Hello William,

    thank you for the follow up! I attached your direct reply here to keep the communication in one place.

    However I’m not seeing any attachment in there at all. What file format is it using? Perhaps you need to zip it or use Dropbox or similar service.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello William,

    thank you for sending over the XML to our email.

    We tested this and come up with a fix. Could you please re-install FV Player from this ZIP file and let us know if it fixes the issue for you? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/task-5921452-http_build_url-conflict-Pods.zip

    Thanks,
    Martin
