help understanding error log entry

  • reachinghappy · Member ·

    My site keeps crashing every 5-7 days. I fix it by uploading a working copy of htaccess file. There are a ton of the same error message in the error_log but I’m not certain what it means. Can any tech experts PLEASE help me to understand what is broken?

    Here is what copy of the error:

    [02-Feb-2023 15:33:41 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught ArgumentCountError: Too few arguments to function WP_Widget::__construct(), 0 passed in /home4/reachppy/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-widget-factory.php on line 61 and at least 2 expected in /home4/reachppy/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-widget.php:162
