Hi,

I found a PHP 8.3 compatibility issue in the TheGem Elements Counter widget.

File: wp-content/plugins/thegem-elements-elementor/inc/elementor/widgets/counter/widget.php

Line 184:

###b class="inline-flex items-center justify-center relative isolate shrink-0 can-focus select-none disabled:pointer-events-none disabled:opacity-50 disabled:shadow-none disabled:drop-shadow-none border-transparent transition font-base duration-300 ease-[cubic-bezier(0.165,0.85,0.45,1)] h-8 w-8 rounded-md backdrop-blur-md _fill_10ocf_9 _ghost_10ocf_96" type="button" aria-label="Copy to clipboard" data-state="closed"###

php

$arr_teams_person[$p->ID] = get_post_meta($p->ID, 'thegem_team_person_data')[0]['name'];

This throws a fatal error on PHP 8.3:

###b class="inline-flex items-center justify-center relative isolate shrink-0 can-focus select-none disabled:pointer-events-none disabled:opacity-50 disabled:shadow-none disabled:drop-shadow-none border-transparent transition font-base duration-300 ease-[cubic-bezier(0.165,0.85,0.45,1)] h-8 w-8 rounded-md backdrop-blur-md _fill_10ocf_9 _ghost_10ocf_96" type="button" aria-label="Copy to clipboard" data-state="closed"###

PHP Warning: Trying to access array offset on false

Fix:

###b class="inline-flex items-center justify-center relative isolate shrink-0 can-focus select-none disabled:pointer-events-none disabled:opacity-50 disabled:shadow-none disabled:drop-shadow-none border-transparent transition font-base duration-300 ease-[cubic-bezier(0.165,0.85,0.45,1)] h-8 w-8 rounded-md backdrop-blur-md _fill_10ocf_9 _ghost_10ocf_96" type="button" aria-label="Copy to clipboard" data-state="closed"###

php

$arr_teams_person[$p->ID] = get_post_meta($p->ID, 'thegem_team_person_data')[0]['name'] ?? '';

This causes Elementor editor to return a 500 Internal Server Error on PHP 8.3 + WordPress 7.0.

Please include this fix in the next update.

Environment:

• PHP: 8.3
• WordPress: 7.0
• Elementor: 4.1.1
• TheGem Elements: 5.12.1.1

Thanks

Thank you!
