*-------------------*
This error is occurring because the WooCommerce cart is being accessed too early in the WordPress loading process, specifically before the {{wp_loaded}} action has fired. The issue is coming from the PMS (Paid Member Subscriptions) plugin's WooCommerce integration.
Here are several ways to fix this issue:
h2. Solution 1: Hook to the Correct Action
The most proper fix is to modify the PMS plugin code to wait for the appropriate WordPress action. You'll need to edit the PMS plugin file that contains the {{pms_woo_guest_checkout_status}} function.
Look for this function and modify it to check if WordPress is fully loaded:
 
php
Copy
{{function pms_woo_guest_checkout_status($value) { // Don't run before wp_loadedif (!did_action('wp_loaded')) { return $value;
} // Original function code hereif (pms_woo_subscription_in_cart()) { // Your logic here } return $value;
}}}
h2. Solution 2: Delay the Hook Registration
Find where the filter is added (likely in the PMS plugin's main file) and delay it:
 
php
Copy
{{// Instead of adding the filter immediately, wait for wp_loadedadd_action('wp_loaded', function() { add_filter('pre_option_woocommerce_enable_guest_checkout', 'pms_woo_guest_checkout_status');
});}}
h2. Solution 3: Check if Cart is Available
Modify the {{pms_woo_subscription_in_cart}} function to safely check for the cart:
 
php
Copy
{{function pms_woo_subscription_in_cart() { // Check if WooCommerce is active and cart is availableif (!function_exists('WC') || !WC()->cart) { return false;
} // Check if we're past the wp_loaded actionif (!did_action('wp_loaded')) { return false;
} // Now safely get the cart$cart = WC()->cart->get_cart(); // Your subscription checking logic hereforeach ($cart as $cart_item) { // Check if item is a subscription } return false;
}}}
h2. Solution 4: Plugin-Specific Fix
If you're using the Paid Member Subscriptions plugin, you can create a custom plugin or add to your theme's {{functions.php}}:
 
php
Copy
{{// Remove the problematic filter temporarilyremove_filter('pre_option_woocommerce_enable_guest_checkout', 'pms_woo_guest_checkout_status');// Re-add it after wp_loadedadd_action('wp_loaded', function() { add_filter('pre_option_woocommerce_enable_guest_checkout', 'pms_woo_guest_checkout_status');
});}}
h2. Solution 5: Contact Plugin Developer
Since this appears to be a bug in the PMS plugin, the best long-term solution is to:
# Contact the plugin developer
# Report this issue with the backtrace you provided
# Request an update that properly handles the WordPress loading sequence
h2. Temporary Workaround
If you need a quick fix and can't modify the plugin code, you can suppress these specific notices by adding this to your {{wp-config.php}}:
 
php
Copy
{{// Suppress WooCommerce cart timing notices (temporary fix)if (!defined('WC_DOING_IT_WRONG_SUPPRESS')) { define('WC_DOING_IT_WRONG_SUPPRESS', true);
}}}
*Note:* This only hides the notices but doesn't fix the underlying issue.
h2. Recommended Approach
I recommend *Solution 3* as it's the safest approach that checks for all necessary conditions before accessing the cart. This ensures the code works properly regardless of when it's called during the WordPress loading process.
The root cause is that the PMS plugin is trying to check the cart contents during the {{init}} action to determine guest checkout settings, but WooCommerce requires the cart to only be accessed after {{wp_loaded}}.

PressBlk - Connecting Black Businesses to a Global Audience
The Problem:
Market Gap: Consumers seeking Black-owned businesses and products face significant challenges in locating desired goods and services. Despite the demand, there is no comprehensive platform designed to bridge this gap effectively.
Customer Challenge: Black consumers spend approximately $300 billion annually on unsatisfactory products and services, indicating a lack of visibility and accessibility to quality, Black-owned offerings.
Cost Barrier: Black entrepreneurs and business owners struggle with the high costs of promotional advertising, resulting in low visibility and missed revenue opportunities.
Usability Issues: Consumers and business owners seek a seamless, easy-to-use platform that connects them without the hassle of navigating multiple disconnected channels.
The Solution:
Closing the Gap: PressBlk offers a dedicated mobile app that connects consumers directly to Black-owned businesses, making it easier for them to find, purchase, and support Black-owned products and services globally. No other app provides the same level of accessibility and convenience for this specific market.
Cost Savings: By reducing the need for expensive advertising, PressBlk allows Black business owners to market their products more effectively and affordably, ensuring greater visibility and reach.
Target Audience: A platform designed for all consumers in search of Black-owned goods and services, PressBlk creates a marketplace that elevates Black entrepreneurship by making their products easily discoverable and accessible.
Ease of Use: PressBlk provides an intuitive, user-friendly app that simplifies the connection between businesses and consumers, fostering growth and empowering Black entrepreneurs through culturally conscious commerce.
