Please close. Resolved.

Hi Nikko & Yigit,

Happy new year!

Thank you for your help. I did take a peak at the code that the error referred to:

if ( WP_DEBUG && apply_filters( 'deprecated_function_trigger_error', true ) ) {

I then changed WP_Debug to false in web-config.php and the errors went away. All this to say, it seems that the deprecated code is being purposely called. I am confident that I have cleared the browser cache and I am not running an old version of the theme.

I’d also like to share:
“Private Content (link to your website, login credentials, FTP credentials, etc – only visible for moderators)” is the title of the box that allowed me to enter my private URL. The title suggests that this is acceptable.

Thanks again,

Doug.
