^{Originally posted by **markus7777777** June 2, 2024} Hi everyone. I'm having trouble disabling the visibility of an activity. The same issue occurs when I try to edit an activity and add a tag to it. **Kimai Version: 2.17.0 Custom fields version: 2.0.7** **Log:** `[2024-06-02 08:25:11] [request] CRITICAL: Uncaught PHP Exception Error: "Call to a member function toArray() on array" at TagsExtension.php line 64 {"exception":"[object] (Error(code: 0): Call to a member function toArray() on array at /var/www/kimai/var/plugins/MetaFieldsBundle/Form/Extension/TagsExtension.php:64)"} [] [2024-06-02 08:25:11] [request] INFO: Matched route "admin_activity_edit". {"route":"admin_activity_edit","route_parameters":{"_route":"admin_activity_edit","_controller":"App\\Controller\\ActivityController::editAction","_locale":"de_AT","id":"38"},"request_uri":"http://kimai.local/activity/38/edit","method":"POST"} []` **Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this?**

Just update des Custom Fields Plugin to the latest version and the error will go away.

I bought the new version of the plugin but that didn't solve the issue.

The Auto Tag Column inside activities responds : "A string is necessary"

If i want to disable the custom field - the error from my initial issue pops up.

You don't need to buy a new version for an update, if you have an active subscription.

What does that mean? How do you try to disable the field? Do you mean if you remove all tags from the field?

[kevinpapst]

You need at least the plugin version 2.6. better 2.7.0.

Can you show me the output:

bin/console kimai:version
bin/console kimai:plugins

I had to purchase a new version because it was no longer available in my Lemonsqueezy account. I dont know why?

My aim is to edit activities -> rename them -> add further tags -> disable visibility of some activites... All of these scenarios dont work.

bin/console kimai:version -> Kimai 2.17.0 by Kevin Papst.

The latest Plugin Version available is 2.5.0 (LemonSqueezy)

I am not able to reproduce it. Sorry, but can you try to reproduce it in the demo: https://www.kimai.org/en/demo.html If it fails there as well, what is it that you are doing exactly? Like step-by-step.

[markus7777777]

Thank you very much for your help. I tried to reproduce the problem on the demo version. In the demo it works fine and without any problems.

Please have a look into the attached pdf where I tried to reproduce the error.

[kevinpapst]

Ok, I think found the problem. If you have a lot of tags (more than 500) another dropdown type is used. And one of them fails.

[markus7777777]

For this tag there are 7087 Timesheet entries. In sum, we have 3 different Tags.

Can you please update to plugin version 2.8.0 and retry?
