Hello,
I am using Joomla 6.0.1 and PHP 8.4.
If I disable the backward Compatibility 6 plugin, I get a blank screen when I try to edit any JCE profiles. I couldn't get any error messages, but it's linked to the display of form fields, because it's working again if I remove this php file only: /administrator/components/com_jce/models/fields/filesystempath.php
If I reenable the backward Compatibility 6 plugin with the two checkboxes unchecked, it's also working.
Thanks for your help and my best wishes for the year ahead!
Christophe

Do you have the latest version of JCE Pro installed? - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/downloads/editor/pro/latest

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention it: JCE Pro 2.9.97

it's working again if I remove this php file only: /administrator/components/com_jce/models/fields/filesystempath.php

It is fine to delete this in JCE Pro as it is not used.

I will fix the blank screen error related to this file in the next update.
