Product Version4.2.x 
Summary16245: Extending themes Vanilla and Fruity broken since 4.2.0
Description

Starting with 4.2.0, extending the theme Vanilla or Fruity shows an error in the preview box.

Extending Vanilla shows the error: Calling "tostring" method on a "stdClass" object is not allowed in "string_templateb55aa4d0480829447d1e9202fbd9338e3599742834899f6fdab87be7c4eaab2b" at line 76.
Extending Fruity shows the error: Calling "
tostring" method on a "stdClass" object is not allowed.

Clicking the Theme Options button for those extended themes produce a 500 HTTP error.

Using any of those extended themes in a survey produce a 500 HTTP error when previewing.

Steps To Reproduce

On a clean install of 4.2.x:

  • Extend Vanilla of Fruity theme
  • When redirected on the newly extended theme, check the preview box for an error message.

Can you enable debug = 2 in application/config/config.php and try again, please? Paste the complete error message here.

I see it could be a duplicate but here is some more info if it can be useful.

When setting debug=2 and accessing /admin/themeoptions with extended themes in it, I get the content of Debug_2_themes_page.txt.
When accessing /admin/themeoptions/sa/update/id/6 which in my case is the options of extends-fruity, I get Debug_2_extends_fruity.txt.
When setting debug=1 and accessing /admin/themeoptions, I get the page as usual but with additional notices, see image Debug_1.png
Still with debug=1, when clicking the Theme options button, I get the content of Debug_1.txt.

This has become urgent as we cannot extend the core theme to add our logo and therefore cannot do surveys on version 4.

I reported this issue on 4.2.2 and I reproduced it in 4.2.0 and 4.2.1. I'm pretty sure it was still there in 4.2.3.

However, I just tested in 4.2.4 and I can successfully extend a theme now, even though I didn't read something about a fix it in the changelogs. I suppose it has been fixed on the latest version.

I had started from a fresh load on an empty database and could not extend properly. It gave the error and trying to run the survey just gave a blank screen.
I am clearing the database and files and will do another fresh load and try again.

OK : still exactly the same issue : options of theme are Class, not string or int at this time

I solved this issue with my system by reverting to PHP 7.2

Description:

I had just set up a new instance of limesurvey, but had another old one on a separate server with the same hosting provider.

I noticed that, in the new instance, extending a theme causes a total malfunction of the new extended theme as described above. Some of the symptoms:

  • 500 error when trying to enter theme options for the extended theme; "Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string" is the error message
  • error when trying to preview a survey with the extended theme set

Because it was working fine for the old instance, and it was the same hosting, I tried to solve the issue by looking for differences. Reverting the malfunctioning insance to LimeSurvey 4.1.0 (the version of the first instance) did not fix the bug (!)

I then looked at all the other settings and noticed that the malfunctioning server was using PHP 7.4 while the old server was using 7.2. I changed PHP settings, and while the problem was still popping up in extended themes previously created under PHP 7.4, it was solved for extended themes created with PHP version 7.2.

So database type is MySQL, PHP 7.4 causes malfunction while PHP 7.2 does not, the server meets all the requirements and recommendations for hosting LS. Presumably, the malfunction consists of an incorrect class being assigned to something when creating an extended theme. If I can provide any more data, please let me know specifically what is needed.

Is there are suggested work around to this problem until the bug is fixed? Moving back to a previous PHP version is not possible. Could we install a (much) older version of LS4, create the theme, and then update? If so, where can I get a pre-4.2 download?

As I have the same issue with PHP 7.4 on last LS version (4.3), I started to check what's wrong ...

It looks like that when we duplicate a theme, the theme "option" in the DB table "template_configuration" is not correctly copied ...

My opinion : options can be empty or invalid : LimeSurvey must fix it transparently.

Additional information on this problem.

I did a fresh install of Version 4.3.2+200629 to a different server running an older version of PHP (7.0.2). I was able to correctly extend and modify my theme and everything appeared to be working fine.
I then did an EXPORT of that working theme as a zip to my local drive.
Now back to the production server which was updated to Version 4.3.2+200629 and running PHP 7.3.18
I was able to correctly IMPORT the theme and it appears to work fine. I was also able to use the theme editor correctly.
Therefore the problem is in the "theme EXTEND" code.
