Hi,
I think you have your error reporting in Joomla! Global Configuration - Server Settings set too high.  You only need it set to System Default.
To explain for example with user_random_id variable it is used in a php statement of the form

Code Select Expand

if ($may_download === true){
            if ($user_random_id){   
                JDHelper::writeSessionEncoded($user_random_id, 'jd_random_id');
Now it is perfectly good and permissible php to test on an undefined variable as it will return  a 'FALSE' state.  But at high levels of error reporting this is picked up as a potential error as sometimes it is a real error, but not in the cases shown in your error reports appearing on user sites.
