Input field not rendering

    Hello, I’m experiencing a weird issue where some input fields are not rendering in a form generated by Participants Database. I just noticed it today, but it hasn’t been working correctly for a while. On my site, all Participant Database versions past 1.7.5 is failing to render fields. The last version that works is 1.7.3.2.

    On this site, we use PHP 7.1. I’m seeing a lot of errors in the logs regarding string offsets, so it’s probably related to the compatibility changes in 7.1 with strings.

    Here is an example from the error log:

    PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot unset string offsets in [redacted]/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/xnau_FormElement.class.php:1110

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thanks for this, this is a good report. One of the surprises that PHP 7.1 is giving me!

    Working on a fix for this.

    The strange thing though is that this website has been on 7.1 for quite a while, do you have any idea why it was 1.7.5 that broke everything?

    Yes, there were some code changes in that version that affected this. The current release should fix it.
