 * I’m having the same issue. Any advance on the solution?
 * I’ve read in another post that changing some code (curly brackets) the issue 
   can be solved; I’ve changed several curly brackets and still I’m getting the 
   error. I’m on PHP 8, and I think that the problem is related to php version and
   the phpexcel version used. The plugin should be updated to PHPSpreadsheet, any
   idea when can that happend?
