Title: fixing "count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements ..."
Post by: aegersz on May 16, 2021, 11:16:42 AM

I have tried and failed to fix this bug; this came in at php 7.2 and the full error is:

count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable

the offending line of code is:

Code Select

return count(isset($context['friends']) ? $context['friends'] : null);

any suggestions ?

Try replacing 'null' with 'array()'.
