WP_Widget is deprecated since version 4.3.0!

I just upgraded WP, and installed Business Grow theme. I get the error
Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 4.3.0! Use <pre>__construct()</pre> instead. in [...]\wp-includes\functions.php on line 3457
Is this something you can fix with an update? I read that it has to do with plug-ins but I only have the latest Akismet installed. No other plug-ins at all.

 

Hello,

Greetings from InkThemes!

You can hide this kind of error by adding below code in your "functions.php" file:

Code:

add_filter('deprecated_constructor_trigger_error', '__return_false');

I hope it helps you..

Do let me know if you need more assistance,

Thanks & Regards!
