Notice: Undefined index: #view_mode in field_formatter_class_preprocess_field() [#2776891]

Hi,

After updating to 7.x-1.3, when I access My Account & other pages, it randomly shows Notice: Undefined index: #view_mode in field_formatter_class_preprocess_field() (line 61 of public_html/sites/all/modules/field_formatter_class/field_formatter_class.module).

First I thought it was the bug of Field Formatter Class module. After reading this #1888604: Notice: Undefined index: #view_mode in field_formatter_class.module which gave me some clues, I checked through the codes of realname.module, and added

'#view_mode' => $view_mode,

to the array of line #176

 $account->content['realname'] = array(  
...
...

After that, the notice disappeared. I doubt if this is the solution. Kindly advise. Thanks

I was getting this same issue when using Display Suite Extras with field templates enabled.

The code change worked for me. Here it is in patch form.

#2 patch removed my error as well.

Notice: Undefined index: #view_mode in ds_extras_preprocess_field() (line 1011 of /path/to/drupal/root/sites/all/modules/contrib/ds/modules/ds_extras/ds_extras.module).

Thanks!

Could also be causing this issue in ds: #2261001: Notice: Undefined index: #view_mode in ds_extras_preprocess_field()

Patch looks reasonable to me and works.

Also this change is needed:

  $account->content['realname'] = array(
-    '#entity_type' => 'custom',
-    '#bundle' => 'custom',
+    '#entity_type' => 'user',
+    '#bundle' => 'user',

And maybe the '#items' should get something more bullet-proof than array(TRUE).

There are many modules that want to mess with theme_field(). They all expect a specific format.

Seems similar to this issue: https://www.drupal.org/node/1928470#comment-7737419. Of course, field_empty_text is obsolete now, but the issue seems common.

I will say that this appeared for me only after a code push to dev server, and disappeared after simply visiting the display suite fields page (/admin/structure/ds/fields) and then returning to the original page it appeared on, as if the database was somehow updated/refreshed. I'm still applying the patch in the hopes that it never resurfaces to irritate the client.

I agree with MrPaulDriver on committing the patch.
