Undefined index: template_notes php errors when updating templates
Development and Programming
I started getting these errors when I try and update a template. Using EE v2.11.1 Can anyone shed some light on what is causing this?
A PHP Error was encountered

Just upgraded to EE 2.11.1 and still have the error
Having Save Template Revisions set to yes or no does not fix the issue Same with Save Templates as Files yes or no same issue
I think I ran into this a time or two where the server was dropping any empty post data. Let’s see if that’s the case- just put something in the notes before you try to save. Does that work?
wow that worked. IS it a server problem then? any other way to fix that or just add a note to each template?
Yep- it’s a weird one. I’ll put a note in the troubleshooting docs to help folks who run into it in the future.
I think it’s a Suhosin filter setting, though I’m not 100% sure which one.
Grab your system admin/host, let them know that empty post data has the key dropped from $_POST and see if they can tweak the server security filters- most likely Suhosin- so that doesn’t happen.
You really don’t want it happening- I know in one of the other cases I ran into, it was causing a problem with a shopping cart too. So definitely could be unintended consequences if left as it is.
And if they tell you the exact setting that did the trick, I’d love to know. Reading the Suhosin config, I’m still not sure.
