Fixes #434
Problem
Sites upgraded from older WPUM versions may still have legacy columns in their
wpum_fieldstable (is_required,show_on_registration,can_delete,default_visibility,allow_custom_visibility,options,meta) left over from before field configuration was migrated towpum_fieldmeta.dbDelta()never drops columns, so they persist indefinitely.WPUM_DB::get()usesSELECT *, which returns all columns including these orphaned ones.setup_field()then assigned every returned property directly to$this, creating dynamic properties that PHP 8.2+ deprecates.Fix
Filter the loop in
setup_field()to only assign columns that are part of the declared schema (get_columns()). Orphaned legacy columns are silently ignored — no database migration needed.Testing
On a site with legacy
wpum_fieldscolumns, the deprecation notices atclass-wpum-field.php:214should no longer appear on PHP 8.2+.
