 * Hi there,
 * We recently actioned maintenance on a website and updated all the Events Calendar
   plugins.
 * After the updates were pushed live we noticed the “Add an Event” page was broken
   with the following PHP error reported in the logs:
 * 2022/02/23 10:52:37 [error] 29090#29090: *20816978 FastCGI sent in stderr: “PHP
   message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Tribe\Utils\Lazy_String::__toString():
   Return value must be of type string, null returned in {REMOVED}/plugins/the-events-
   calendar/common/src/Tribe/Utils/Lazy_String.php:78
 * We’re using WP 5.9 & PHP 8.0.
 * Would be great if we could get this fixed so we can apply the latest versions
   of the plugin to the site 🙂

 * Hello [@klivie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/klivie/),
 * Thanks for getting in touch, and I’m sorry to hear about your experience. Let’s
   see if we can get that sorted out.
 * Are you referring to Community Events’ Add an Event page? May I have the URL 
   please?
 * Do you have a license for any of our premium plugins? If you are, have you opened
   a support ticket? May I have the support ticket number so I can take a look?
 * Kind regards,
    Allen TEC Support

 * Hi Allen,
 * Thanks for the response, Yes sorry didn’t realise it was specifically the Community
   Events plugin for this!
 * I’ve just created a support ticket via our Account at [https://theeventscalendar.com/support/](https://theeventscalendar.com/support/)
 * So perhaps this thread isn’t required so much anymore
 * Thanks

 * Thank you for sharing that issue! That’s really a bug and something we’re already
   working to fix. We’ll provide a new plugin version soon and that issue will be
   gone 🙂
 * I’ll also answer your ticket in our paid support queue right now.
 * Best Regards,
