Hi joshualuckers,  
We were in a conversation with Bob after we were experiencing some stability issues in Modx 2.8 with Articles 1.8.0: [Articles issues with upgrade - #3 by lancipoos](https://community.modx.com/t/articles-issues-with-upgrade/5340/3)

Since then we’ve been developing a new site using Modx 3.0.1. and have installed Articles.  
In the manager, instead of the blank page VibesDesign sees, we have a compressed display on both the Container and Article Template. See screen shots below. These pages throw errors:  
`core/src/Revolution/modX.php Unable to load processor for action "mgr/comment/getList"`

```auto
core/vendor/xpdo/xpdo/src/xPDO/xPDO.php Could not load class: modAction from mysql.modaction

```

 ![articles1](https://modx-community.s3.dualstack.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/original/2X/d/d730bdf8867a1c189f217f088e55d5cafba5deac.jpeg)

We see a blank page for the Articles container - but on the front end. The error is  
`PHP warning: strpos(): Empty needle` in ArticlesContainer.php

We still see the js console error in Modx 3.0.1 " Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘formpanel’)" as mentioned in the post with Bob on clicking ‘Close’ in the Article Template.

Any help would be appreciated. Php is 7.2.24
