How to install 2.11 was created by Arjan
Hi, 
I get an error message now when saving items and catgegories due to the upgrade of PHP to 8.0 and i read that installing K2 2.11 would solve the problem.
I have installed 2.10.4 for there was a thread saying that might work but it didn't help. I have some custom css but when I deleted that I still got the error message when saving an item.

I can find version 2.11 on Github but do I need to replace everything file by file? Or is there a quicker way?? It stated somewhere that you can get a zip file??

Thanks for helping

I found the zip file link in another thread here at joomlaworks (search for v2.11). I installed it and hopefully it will solve some problems. I'll let you know.

Well, the problem still exists. Like in another thread I get the following message when saving Item or Categorie:

0 strtoupper(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, array given

Does anyone has a solution for this?
I think it is rather important. Most websites need to run on PHP 8.0 due to security.

Can anyone dive into this??

Thank you

I don't see 2.11. Only 2.10.3 is released?

You can get 2.11 or 2.10.4 (Dev) but it is not released as stable.

Aha okay, I guess there is your answer it's not stable yet.

But to help you I can try, do you have a line number and corresponding file that gives you this issue? It's probably a Joomla 4 or PHP 8 issue with using a certain piece of code that is replaced in the new versions.

Also, you dont need to upgrade to php 8 just yet. Probably a year or so until it gets vulnerable.

Thank you.

When I go back to PHP 7.4 the problem is 'solved' but I want/need to go to 8.0 for security and Akeeba doesn't work well on PHP 7.4 anymore.

This code appears on the '(blank) page which appears after clicking the save and close button when I save an item or category:

0 strtoupper(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, array given

When I go back to the control panel afterwards the item or category actually got saved!
But I have from a colleague who was trying to save it in a certain category that it didn't get saved to that specific category. Other items seem to get saved.

I don't know exactly what line or so gives the issue....

Turn on error reporting to the maxium in the site settings. Than you get the names of the files and. the line of the code.

Done that but it makes no difference. I get the same result. I don't get a line. Just this new blank page saying

Error
An error has occurred
0 strtoupper(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, array given
And a button return to control panel

Can you check the error logs? From the server?

We need some kind of indication else it's just looking for a needle in a haystack
