Title: SMF 2.0.14 + PHP 7.1 [] operator not supported for strings at 'Search method'
Post by: ATAG on October 17, 2017, 09:14:40 AM

When search method is set to 'fulltext index' the settings goes away and shows '[] operator not supported for strings' message only.
Affected code and bug fix:
Sources/ManageSearch.php

Code Select

$context['fulltext_index'] = '';
		if ($request !== false || $smcFunc['db_num_rows']($request) != 0)
		{

Find and change to:

Code Select

$context['fulltext_index'] = array();
		if ($request !== false || $smcFunc['db_num_rows']($request) != 0)
		{
