J4 Helix Ultima PHP8 Gives Error: Implode(): Argument #1 ($pieces) Must Be Of Type Array, String Given
clausjepsen
I have upgraded from 3.10 to 4.0.6 on PHP8 and replaced Helix3 with latest Helix ultimate.
When launching, I get the error on front end: implode(): Argument #1 ($pieces) must be of type array, string given
If I select "Cassiopeia" as default template instead of Helix Ultimate, the site works!
What do you suggest?
Here is the error text:

Accepted Answer@Toufiq: It is not related to HELIX 3 but HELIX Ultimate

Accepted AnswerHI, since May 28th 2022 PHP 7.4.28 entered the “Security maintenance” phase. This means that since Saturday, 28 May 2022 PHP 7.4.28 has stopped receiving bug fixes. It will stop receiving security updates on Monday, 28 November 2022 at which point it will be unsuitable for use on a live site.
Is there any information from JoomShaper, when it will be possible to upgrade the JoomlaPages using Helix3 to PHP 8? Is there any problem known with PHP 8 and Helix ultimate?
Toufiq
Accepted AnswerI have informed our team and I hope they will take initiative as soon as possible. Thanks

Accepted AnswerWe have also been unable to upgrade to PHP 8 with Helix Ultimate. It throws the same error as quoted above. Will this issue be fixed anytime soon or do we need to find an alternative template?
