PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Non-static method cannot be called statically

When adding Form Items in Review Forms but every time I press create new Item it generates the following error:
Failed Ajax request or invalid JSON returned.

The error log is:

PHP version is : PHP 8.0.5
OJS : 3.3.0.4

Can you help please?

Hi @Yolla

OJS isn’t PHP 8 compatible yet. You should downgrade to PHP 7.4.
