I get the same error in WP when I use php ver 7 1 6 - just take your php version back to 7 0 20 and the error will disappear

if   inputs  type       attach       The code is valid  but it expects the function parameter  inputs to be an array  The  Illegal string offset  warning when using  inputs  type   means that the function is being passed a string instead of an array   And then since a string offset is a number   type  is not suitable    So in theory the problem lies elsewhere  with the caller of the code not providing a correct parameter   However  this warning message is new to PHP 5 4  Old versions didn t warn if this happened  They would silently convert  type  to 0  then try to get character 0  the first character  of the string  So if this code was supposed to work  that s because abusing a string like this didn t cause any complaints on PHP 5 3 and below   A lot of old PHP code has experienced this problem after upgrading    You might want to debug why the function is being given a string by examining the calling code  and find out what value it has by doing a var dump  inputs   in the function  But if you just want to shut the warning up to make it behave like PHP 5 3  change the line to   if  is array  inputs   amp  amp   inputs  type       attach
