[Resolved] ACFML; Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, float give...
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: If you're experiencing an 'Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, float given' error in ACFML, it might be due to a Google Map field storing latitude and longitude as float values, which our hashing algorithm was not handling properly.
If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Background of the issue:
ACFML; Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, float given
Symptoms:
ACFML; Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, float given
Questions:
Can you help me reopen my chat with Carlos or continue the support here?
What could be causing the 'Uncaught TypeError: count(): Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, float given' error in ACFML?
Option 1: Turn off the Keep repeater and flexible sub-fields in the same order as the default language option and update the post -> seems to work fine.
While Option 2 doesn't (throws 503 error as noted in other chat). The proposed change was supposed to be included in the latest version but not sure why it doesn't and runs into the said 503 error.
Anyways, I'm checking with the relevant team and 'll escalate the issue based on the information I receive.
I am trying to reproduce the problem in a fresh sandbox site by:
- Copying your theme.
- Adding related configs from your wp-config.php file in sandbox's wp-config.php.
- Installing and setting up WPML, WPML ST, ACF and ACFML.
- Importing all posts, post types, taxonomies, ACF field groups and etc.
But surprisingly, even the post types have been created, and after importing posts, I am not seeing any of your theme defined post type having a place to (even) add a new post - see attached.
So can you please log into this sandbox (hidden link - one click login) and setup things accordingly? Then try to reproduce the problem please.
Also let me know any special steps needed to enable add new posts under those post types, as well as, importing existing posts from your site.
Our team investigated the issue and found that the issue happens because there's a Google Map field, that stores the latitude and longitude as float values. Our hashing algorithm was not handling floats.
