Fatal error:Access level to VisformsModelVisplaceholders::$fid must be protected

Hi,
I don't know since which version it happens because I haven't been using placeholders for long time but, trying to insert a placeholder with "Visforms Placeholder" button in "Email receipt text" an error is shown in the popup:

Fatal error: Access level to VisformsModelVisplaceholders::$fid must be protected (as in class VisformsModelVisfields) or weaker in path/to/my/website/folder/administrator/components/com_visforms/models/visplaceholders.php on line 17

I'm using v3.12.5

Thank you very much
Kind regards

Hi,
thanks for pointing my to this but. I think this has happened between on the Visforms 3.12.x update.

It is very easy to fix and I will release a bugfix as soon as possible.

Just open the file path/to/my/website/folder/administrator/components/com_visforms/models/visplaceholders.php

Replace the code

at line 19 with This will fix the problem.

Regards,
Aicha

P.S. I don't know, why the line number is 17 in the error message, so maybe you find the code in line 17 in your file

Hi, I confirm that your fix works.
Thank you very much.
Kind regards
