In the cpanel error log WordPress generates this error:

PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach () in /home/padtvro/public_html/wp-content/themes/claudia/content.php on line 30

If I delete it, it appears again in 6-7 hours. What's the problem?

• 2 Is this from a theme you developed, or one you bought/downloaded. If it's from another developer you need to raise the issue with them so that they can resolve the issue in a way that will be safe from updates. – Jacob Peattie Commented Mar 31, 2020 at 13:10

The error is generated by this code:

line 27 $tags = get_the_tags();                     
line 28
line 29                    $cn_sidebar ='';
line 30                    foreach($tags as $tg_id) {

If a post has no tags, get_the_tags() wil return false. Then supplying false to the foreach statement will get you the error mentioned. In order to prevent this you should wrap the foreach in if (!empty($tags)) { foreach ...}.
