foreach errors

[headzoo]

Hi,
First of all, sorry, I didn't actually take note of the file or line when the errors popped up. I had a good idea of what was causing the error, so I just fixed it.

Using a fresh install on WinXP, using PHP 5.1.1, there were more than a few foreach errors the first time I logged in. They seemed to revolve around the categories.

It appears the scripts are trying to foreach through an array of categories, but since it's a fresh install, there are no categories, and so, no array.

In the admin area, this happened on the edit entries page, and categories page.

Hi!

Could you tell exactly where those foreach errors are comming (with line number and file) and which Serendipity version you are using?

Best regards,

Garvin,
Sorry, but like I said, I didn't take note of the error information when it happened. I downloaded Serendipity yesterday, so it was the most bleeding edge version.

As soon as I created a single category, the errors went away. So it seems to me that you're generating a menu by foreaching through an array of category data, but until the first category is created, there is no array, which causes the error.

I had this happen with the Karma plugin. Once the author had karma, the error disappeared. I suspect it might be that the array / table that is being iterated using the foreach loop is empty or null.
