PHP Warning: Illegal string offset 'userid' functions.php on line 448

Also 'usergroupid' line 382 and 448

The chase goes on.

Recently done an update to php 7.x?

I think one of your hacks/addon's needs to be updated.

You have to disable them one by one until you aren't seeing the error. After that search for this addon here in this forum. There should be the solution.

Typicaly a string which is used as array. Then you should inititialize it as $xxxx = [];

It's only a PHP warning so you can insert the following code in config.php:
define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS', true);

Another solution is to use the following mod to fix PHP errors like this one. I use it to fix PHP errors of my mods with PHP 7.2+. The mod works fine on vb3.8.11.
