I have a WP blog running on a linux machine.
I need to run it locally on XAMPP on Windows 10.
I copied locally the WordPress blog files to C:xampp2htdocsmtw
I the imported the database and assigned privileges according to the wp-config.
I then changed the URL in wp_options -> siteurl and home to http://localhost/mtw
I am getting the following error on screen:
Fatal error: Uncaught ArgumentCountError: array_merge() does not accept unknown named parameters in C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includeswidgets.php:1261 Stack trace: #0 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includeswidgets.php(1261): array_merge(wp_inactive_widgets: Array, blog_right_sidebar: Array) #1 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includeswidgets.php(1216): retrieve_widgets(true) #2 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesclass-wp-hook.php(289): _wp_sidebars_changed('mtwtheme') #3 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesclass-wp-hook.php(311): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array) #4 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesplugin.php(478): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #5 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includestheme.php(2977): do_action('after_switch_th...', 'mtwtheme', Object(WP_Theme)) #6 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesclass-wp-hook.php(287): check_theme_switched('') #7 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesclass-wp-hook.php(311): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array) #8 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includesplugin.php(478): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #9 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-settings.php(540): do_action('init') #10 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-config.php(100): require_once('C:\xampp2\htdoc...') #11 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-load.php(37): require_once('C:\xampp2\htdoc...') #12 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-adminadmin.php(34): require_once('C:\xampp2\htdoc...') #13 C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-adminindex.php(10): require_once('C:\xampp2\htdoc...') #14 {main} thrown in C:xampp2htdocsmtwwp-includeswidgets.php on line 1261

Can anybody please help?
