resetForm() triggers warning when exposed sort elements is missing #default_value

Created on 26 July 2025, 3 months ago

When resetting search filters in a view, Better Exposed Filters throws a PHP warning:

Warning: Undefined array key "#default_value" in Drupal\better_exposed_filters\Plugin\views\exposed_form\BetterExposedFilters->resetForm() (line 929 of /app/web/modules/contrib/better_exposed_filters/src/Plugin/views/exposed_form/BetterExposedFilters.php)

This happens because resetForm() assumes sort elements always have a #default_value. When the #default_value is missing it shows a warning message.

Steps to reproduce

Create a view with exposed sort criteria (e.g., Most Relevant).
Enable Better Exposed Filters
Add a Reset button.
Perform a search and click Reset

The php warning shows up in db log.

@integratrix I have verified the MR in 7.0.5 version and it seems to be working fine.

Earlier this warnings were coming as shown in the attached image and after applying the MR warnings are not coming when following the issue reproduce steps.

Thanks

Why did we go from Active straight to RTBC?

I'm not sure about this fix, should check why #default_value is not set and then consider a test case.
