Hi guys.

Thanks for the bug report. This error is coming from the most recent update which used some new parameters in the cache functions.

It seems that some servers are allowing a new variable to be create on the fly and others are not.

This also explains why some people are experiencing data loss.

I’ll look into this today and release a fix

Hi guys.

I think the issue here is that some servers don’t understand the ‘$found’ parameter as it has not yet been created.

Can you do a search for all ‘$found’ and replace with ‘$found = false’

$found is in these files:
– api.php
– field_group.php
– _functions.php

Does this fix the issue?
