Module Fieldtype Select External Option

[Kiwi Chris]

With latest stable or later version of ProcessWire, PHP 7.4x I'm getting error: 

Call to a member function getDefault() on null 

841:            $langName = $this->wire('languages')->getDefault()->name;

I don't have multi-language support installed so I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it?

@kixe Thank you for this module! It saved me countless hours(probably days) of pain.

If anyone needs this field in ProcessGraphQL, I built a support module for it: https://github.com/blue-tomato/GraphQLFieldtypeSelectExtOption

Ran into a little bit of an odd issue with this, but not sure if this module is to blame, or PW.

I've found when saving blank values in php 8.3 - which includes the initial save that happens when making a new page - you hit this error with a core PW file

Fatal Error: Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, null given in wire/core/FieldtypeMulti.php:257

This happens even though the field I've made is a single "select" type

This is a pretty common php 8 issue I believe, which could presumably be changed by fixing 

if(!count($values)) {

to

if(empty($values)) {

but I wouldn't say I was a php expert enough to be confident in the potential repercussions of this, nor whether this is something that should even be changed in PW since it only seems to get tripped up by this module.
