How to fix Warning: call_user_func_array()?

Not sure this will help but after dealing with the exact same error message for the last 2 days I finally figured out what was happening. It was simply a matter of attempting to call the function before the system knew it existed.

In my case, I had written the function in a separate–not-publicly-accessible–directory and attempted to call this function in my functions.php file before I even included the file that contained the function.

Inside my custom_funcs.php file was this function:

function my_custom_funk($url, $path="", $plugin = '') {
    $host = get_this_cust_url( $url );
    $url = str_replace( parse_url( WP_PLUGIN_URL, PHP_URL_HOST ), $host, $url );
    return $url;
}

Inside of my functions.php file, I was doing this:

// get the funk
add_filter( 'plugins_url', 'my_custom_funk' );

// Load Custom Functions
include( '/my/non-public/path/custom_funcs.php' );

Once I changed their order to this…

// Load Custom Functions
include( '/my/non-public/path/custom_funcs.php' );

// get the funk
add_filter( 'plugins_url', 'my_custom_funk' );

…the error completely stopped.

Hopefully this helps and saves someone two days of debugging.

Lastly, the posts read here are what lead me to make the change.
