TinyMCE: Insert file does not work with php 8

[Callisto58]

When I want to insert a file or image, only an empty window appears in the file upload window (insert file / filemanager).

Yes, it is reported since june 2022 without any solution. The current version of TinyMCE is 6.3. The latest TinyMCE version in cmsms is 3.3.2., which is pretty old.

I have the same problem after changing to php 8.0..

In most cases I see an empty filemanager popup. But in one case I get an error report:

Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: mb_http_input(): Argument #1 ($type) must be one of "G", "P", "C", "S", "I", or "L" in /homepages/5/xxx/htdocs/xxx/modules/TinyMCE/responsive_filemanager/filemanager/config/config.php:9 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/5/xxx/htdocs/xxx/modules/TinyMCE/responsive_filemanager/filemanager/config/config.php(9): mb_http_input('UTF-8') #1 /homepages/5/xxx/htdocs/xxx/modules/TinyMCE/responsive_filemanager/filemanager/dialog.php(4): include('/homepages/5/...') #2 {main} thrown in /homepages/5/xxx/htdocs/xxx/modules/TinyMCE/responsive_filemanager/filemanager/config/config.php on line 9.

There are some fixes

... but finally it is not future-oriented to make a DIY-fix on a three years old version.

An update would be better, but this answer works for me

https://github.com/trippo/ResponsiveFil ... -936140658

In cmsms mb_http_input is line 9 in TinyMCE/responsive_filemanager/filemanager/config/config.php, not 49.

An update would be most welcome. Unfortunately the developer passed away last year, and the other people on the project are no longer active. If anyone is willing to take it on they should get in touch with me or another Dev Team member.

Oh. Sad news.

Sad news indeed.

I tried the above workaround and can't get it to work with PHP 8.0+ – could someone please post the modified files and/or the steps required?

With this modifications it works for me: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/bug/view/12549

Thank you very much! This fix works with PHP 8.1.13 on two separate installations.

Technically our forum rules do not allow posting of code changes, these need to go on the forge. Because support for this module has lapsed we will leave it up for a while, but please consider moving it to the forge then editing your post with a link to it.

Sorry for that.

I can move the code modifications to the forge. But the time to edit my last post is over.

Here is the link to the forge:

Now anybody could delete my post.
