[Solved] Getting Error: Call to a member function render() on string after adding Content-Element

[jensweigel]

I just reinstall Processwire with latest RockPageBuilder (6.5.2). After adding a Content-Element (Afred oder Backend) I get an error:

 

Error:

Call to a member function render() on string search►
RockDevTools LiveReload is active    

File: .../modules/RockPageBuilder/RockPageBuilder.module.php:1596

1586:      }
1587:    
1588:      /**
1589:       * Render content of blocks field
1590:       */
1591:      public function render($renderPlus = true)
1592:      {
1593:        $page = $this->wire->page;
1594:        $field = $page->getFormatted(self::field_blocks);
1595:        if (!$field) return;
1596:        $html = $field->render($renderPlus);
1597:        $rf = $this->wire->rockfrontend;
1598:        if ($rf) return $rf->html($html);
1599:        return $html;
1600:      }

In Latte-Template:

{if $modules->isInstalled('RockPageBuilder')}
<main sortable>
  {$rockpagebuilder->render(true)}
</main>
{else}

If I delete the Content-Element it works like expected.

Sounds like $field in line 1596 is a string and should not be.

I don't understand exactly. Could you please be more specific with your descriptions? Can you please add examples so that I can better understand what you are doing and what works and what does not? Could you also please describe what you mean by "works as expected"? Thx!

Okay I tried to find out what is wrong. And finaly I found it. The problem was the "Option A: front-edit editable fields" under the Module Front-End Page Editor. Don't know why but I enabled the Option a for rockpagebuilder_blocks. So the error occure. Uncheck and all is fine … (Note to myself: Read the warning …)
