Hi, I’m using CRE8 EasyBlog on Joomla 6, and I get the following error when updating a user profile from the frontend:

Call to undefined method Joomla\String\StringHelper::seoSafe()

EdCentral

It looks like this is leftover code from an older version of EasyBlog
I fixed it by editing the file: controllers/profile.php by importing:

use Joomla\String\StringHelper;

Then replace this line: 
$post['permalink'] = StringHelper::seoSafe($post['permalink']); 

with 


$post['permalink'] = ApplicationHelper::stringURLSafe($post['permalink']); ```

Hi Louise

Thank you for reporting.
I have fixed that and it will be included in the next CRE8 Blog build.

The use-statement StringHelper is not necessary anymore, but "use Joomla\CMS\Application\ApplicationHelper;" would be necessary instead.
