I get the following error from a joomla install that I have.
Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /modules/mod_continuous_rss_scrolling/helper.php on line 54
How do I fix this error?

As it turns out, the author missed a very simple fix and general good practice that you should always initialize your object before you try to set a property. The very simple fix for this is simply to add a new StdClass; call right before the error with the variable it is trying to access.
$items[$i] = new StdClass;
$items[$i]->title = $crs_post_title;
That first line will fix the warning from showing up.
This would also fix the problem in /components/com_community/models/activities.php on line 387 with the following fix.
$commentsResult[$comment->type . '-' . $comment->contentid] = new StdClass;
$commentsResult[$comment->type . '-' . $comment->contentid]->_comment_count = 0;

If you don't know the whole code, is better to add a conditional to the creation line, because the warning could be circumstantial. For example: if (!is_object($items[$i])) {$items[$i] = new stdClass;} $items[$i]->title = $crs_post_title;
