Buenas tardes,
My theme is called crowdpress, I install it to my wordpress, version 5.8, but when trying to activate it I get this fatal error:

Fatal error: Declaration of ECF_FieldRichText::render() must be compatible with ECF_FieldTextarea::render($append = ) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\crowdpress\_framework\custom_fields\fields.php on line 316

Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\class-wp-recovery-mode-email-service.php on line 351

Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\class-wp-recovery-mode-email-service.php on line 352`

Hello @reinaldorafaelbriceno,

Welcome to WordPress Core's Trac!

I'm sorry you're having issues with your website. The fatal error message points to a problem within the theme:

Fatal error: Declaration of ECF_FieldRichText::render() must be compatible with ECF_FieldTextarea::render($append = ) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\crowdpress\_framework\custom_fields\fields.php on line 316

It looks like ECF_FieldRichText is a child class of ECF_FieldTextarea (the parent class). ECF_FieldRichText::render() method signature (the parameters it defines) must match its parent. Look at the error message. It shows the parent's render() method has an $append parameter defined. The child class does not or it's signature is different.

Why did this fatal error happen when you installed it on PHP 8? PHP 8 changed method signatures from a Warning to a Fatal Error. I created a snippet to show this in action ​https://3v4l.org/mPQG1.

The problem is within the theme. Where can you get help? Please reach out to the theme author for support.
