Using PHP 8.0 we can't change the Display Override option under the Query Settings modal.
Steps to reproduce
- Install D7 with PHP 8.0
- Create any view
- Click on the "Advanced" -> "Other" -> "Query settings" -> "Settings" link
- Change the Display Override option (first select element in the modal)
- Click on the "Apply (this display)" button
Actual result with an error:
TypeError: explode(): Argument #2 ($string) must be of type string, array given in explode() (line 310 of /[WEBSITE]/sites/all/modules/views/plugins/views_plugin_query_default.inc).
Proposed resolution
- Fix the issue.
- Add tests to the Views UI to prevent an error in the future.
