Phoca Forum

In the website menu manager I edit the Phoca Download menu item to select List of Files (Category View) for the Menu Item Type. When I open that page in the website's Frontend, I receive this warning:

Warning: Undefined array key 0 in /components/com_phocadownload/views/category/view.html.php on line 412

In addition to the warning message, I see only the H1 heading title. No categories nor files are shown.
When I use a Menu Item Type of List Of Categories (Categories View), the page displays as expected.

Joomla version 4.3.4
PHP version 8.1.12

Hi, when you change the template (like described here: viewtopic.php?p=175949#p175949 ) for test only, do you still get the problem?

BTW, is a category selected in menu link to category view?

AHA! That's the item I skipped. If I select a category, all is well.
Select Category is a required field but the value="" option is accepted as sufficient.

Hi, thank you for the info, I will take a look at it for the next version.

That would be a courtesy to the user. Unfortunately, I cannot see a way to set the select element so that all except one of the options satisfies the required test. You'll probably have to use some other selection technique.

Hi, mostly, removing the first option "Select ..." is the way, so there are only options which are valid.
