Strict Standards: Non-static method Pyro\\Template::preLoad() should not b

Answer 1

Like everyone said, the you called the function with as a static method:

Template::preLoad(xxx)

The :: means static in PHP. Functions are typically called as static :: or object -> calls.

The function definition is one or the other:

public static function preLoad($template, $page)

Called like: Template::preLoad('admin/courses/index', $this->data);

OR

public function preLoad($template, $page)

Called like Template->preLoad('admin/courses/index', $this->data);

For reference, a static function is able to be called without instantiating an object. If your function doesn't need an object to run, you could make it static. Basically, this means you can't reference $this in a static method. It will run with the given inputs without having to construct the object.
