PHP 8.0 Error: 0 count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, null given

Not sure if I can follow this post like this... But I also noticed the incompatibility and would like to follow up on this issue.

Is there a timeframe available or a roadmap of some sort that can inform us of the advances made in this area?

Thank you in advance.

While under development, the site is currently located onto a private network and not accessible via internet.

The issue filed by Matt (see original query above) is still in place. Setting up our backend to use PHP 8.0 results in the same error as mentioned.

Everything works well with PHP 7.4 as stated in the technical requirements Ariba mentioned so it's as to be expected.

I'm wondering if Joomshaper will update the Finion template so it'll be compatible with PHP 8. And if so, what will be the timeframe (more or less) to do so.

Thank you in advance.

I don't have easy access to the hosting enviroment to switch PHP versions. We delivered that particular site and they are running PHP7.4 with the hopes of being able to switch to PHP 8 in the near future.

What I can do is pull a copy and set it up on one of our servers if it would help in getting an update to the template installation file that we could update on the live site. Let me know if that would be helpful and I'll get it setup.

I've setup a copy on my personal domain.

PHP version currently is PHP 8.0.26.

Tell me if anything else is required.

Thank you, Toufiq! I hope this will find a way into a new version of the Finion template on the Joomshaper site. It might help others...

For you convenience Matt, I put a txt file with the content of this default.php file ready to download at https://mannaert.eu/downloads/default.txt

I assume you have no issues altering the php file.

Hope this helps.
