Hi nmsinc,

Thanks for posting the error. There are two ways to fix it:

Upgrade to v3.81 or later, which supports PHP 8.5.
Or remove the array_first() function from cmsAdmin/lib/array_functions.php (it starts at line 6).

We've had our own array_first() function in CMS Builder for years, because PHP didn't have one. PHP 8.5 added its own array_first(), and PHP doesn't allow two functions with the same name, so now the two conflict. Newer versions of CMS Builder use PHP's built-in version instead.

Hope that helps, let me know any other questions.

Thanks!
