Hi there, I'm having problems creating a menu in Phoca Restaurant Menu Lite.
I have a created a section of the menu but when I preview the site I get these error codes appearing.
These are the messages which I receive:

Hi,

are you using version 3.1.1? Which Joomla and PHP version?

Kind regards
Christine

Yes, I am using version 3.1.1
Im using Joomla 3.9
I'm not sure about the PHP version.
How do I find out?
Thanks
Massimo

Hi Massimo,

backend > system > system information > system information
I think you have php version 7.2

Kind regards
Christine

Not sure how to access backend?
Could you print screen the section were I have to go to?
Thanks

Hi Christine,

Found the php version. It is 7.1.23

Hope this helps

it's just a warning and not a "fatal error", but i will inform Jan about, as it is interesting for developer.
Frontend will work OK?

Kind regards
Christine

Hi Christine,
Thanks for getting back to me.

I think I solved the problem.
First I edited the code on line 575 of the php file by removing the underscore, and secondly I deleted the enitire 598 line from the php file.
I don't get the warning signs coming up anymore.
However, after I created a part of the menu, the price of the dish doesn't appear.
Any ideas why?
Thanks
Massimo

Hi, what price did you add to system, was it a number, see:
