I get this array error
"Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array"
in WordPress on file category.php. The issue arrives when I don’t have any subcategories of a category, so I try to handle if the subcategory list is 0.
But I keep getting the same error, can someone see the error I do here?
The error appears starting in the line:
"if ($category[0]->category_parent == 0) {"
And the whole code within the brackets.
<?php
$args = array(
'type' => 'post',
'child_of' => $cat_id,
'parent' => get_query_var(''),
'orderby' => 'name',
'order' => 'ASC',
'hide_empty' => 0,
'hierarchical' => 1,
'exclude' => '',
'include' => '',
'number' => '',
'taxonomy' => 'category',
'pad_counts' => true );
$categories = get_categories($args);
if ($category[0]->category_parent == 0) {
$tag = $category[0]->cat_ID;
$tag_extra_fields = get_option(MY_CATEGORY_FIELDS);
if (isset($tag_extra_fields[$tag])) {
$category_icon_code = $tag_extra_fields[$tag]['category_icon_code'];
$category_icon_color = $tag_extra_fields[$tag]['category_icon_color'];
}
} else {
$tag = $category[0]->category_parent;
$tag_extra_fields = get_option(MY_CATEGORY_FIELDS);
if (isset($tag_extra_fields[$tag])) {
$category_icon_code = $tag_extra_fields[$tag]['category_icon_code'];
$category_icon_color = $tag_extra_fields[$tag]['category_icon_color'];
}
}
foreach($categories as $category) { ?>
