Gazette And Joomla 4.3.1 Php 8.0

I am trying to move a site to Joomla 4 using this template. I appreciate it is still being updated, but the wait is becomong unacceptable for me. I have worked arround some issues and have a stable version passing my tests on a previos Joomla 4 release, but the latest relase to 4.3.1 causes a catstrophic error "The server returned a "500 - Whoops, looks like something went wrong.". This has been traced to the template html overide for login. /templates/shaper_gazette/html/mod_login/default.php to be percise. It seems that the content of the model popu is now out of date from the new Joomla login code and the disserence causes the error. If you comment out the model_body code the template recovers, shows the login icon but of course not the login form. I have tried to update the popup (model_body) code using the new default.php code from the standard Joomla login module, but this is complicated by the chnages in lables which stops the correct display of the popup,. Any chnace yuy guys have a better version of the html overide code to save me a bunch of time backwards engineering this issue. In a heartbeat I would trow out this template, but you have so few up to date templates and none with a popup login button which is a must in this project.

Accepted AnswerI have a work arround, was not sure I would get an early answer and my client is pushing me. I have an updated default.php file for the login screen and a couple of css hacks. This give me an acceptable result and might help someone who's site crashes when updating to the current Joomla 4 release. Just replace the default.php file at /templates/shaper_gazette/html/mod_login/default.php and load the two css statemets into the Custom CSS for the template. There are a few issues, the error messages are not appearing optimaly but it all works.

Accepted AnswerI am looking for a permanent solution from you guys that will persist after any upgrade. My temporary solution will get blown away if I upgrade the template or use a fresh install. As an fyi the same problem occures if you try to open the user preferences edit screen. Your html overide for users also crashes the site, that is an easy fix, just delete your template overide and use the generic Joomla version.
