Hello to the JW team and everyone, testing the latest version of K2 on a test website I have found a problem with the user/s content blog menu type.

Returns the following error (PHP 8.2):
IN_ARRAY(): ARGUMENT #2 ($HAYSTACK) MUST BE OF TYPE ARRAY, NULL GIVEN

With PHP 7.4.23 this problem does not exist.

It happens both with this type of menu and with access to "My page" in mod_k2_user.

Please point me in some direction to be able to solve this, since it is essential for users who publish on the Front End and i need to set PHP 8 as soon as possible

Thank you very much and greetings.

-PHP 8.2
-Joomla 3.10.11
-JoomlaWorks K2 v2.11 Build 20230112

Hello,

Investigating the origin of this problem, I have detected that the error -already fixed- was due to reasons external to K2, but related to another problem:

When activating the K2 child theme developed by Zoolanders (in collaboration with JoomlaWorks) for integration with YOOtheme Pro, an error "undefined constant JPATH_COMPONENT" is finally displayed.

This is because from the script \templates\yootheme_k2\modules\builder-source-k2\src\K2Helper.php two k2 models are called whose constant is not previously initialized:

require_once JPATH_SITE.'/administrator/components/com_k2/models/extrafield.php';
require_once JPATH_SITE.'/administrator/components/com_k2/models/extrafields.php';

and both K2 kernel models scripts use JTable::addIncludePath(JPATH_COMPONENT.'/tables'); where the error occurs, since by removing said line, the error with PHP8 disappears, but it is evident that doing this, K2 will not work without this line of code.


Although I could fix it myself by replacing the constant with the actual path string in these two php scripts from the heart of k2, I am bringing this to the attention of the JoomlaWorks team in case there is some kind of inconsistency with PHP8. I would appreciate an answer on this.

Thank you very much and greetings.

What did you do?
