XF 2.1 Attempted to convert NULL to integer [user_id] src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php:740

[DaveL]

Just started to get a lot of these errors in my server error logs. I did have a search, but it seemed that it should have been resolved ages ago, so at a bit of a loss.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Looks like an issue with a third party add-on - Andy/WelcomeThread.

You will need to post in the resource thread for support.

Hi Brogan,
Many thanks for your quick response. Had that add-on for at least a year with no issues. @AndyB , are you aware of what might be causing this?
Thanks again.

@AndyB , this is v1.8 of the welcome thread add-on. I've had to disable it for now as was get pages of the above warnings.
