Method 'App\Policy\UsersTablePolicy::beforeScope()' is not compatible with method

[lish]

Fatal error : Declaration of App\Policy\UsersTablePolicy::beforeScope(Authorization\IdentityInterface $user, Cake\Database\Query $query, string $action): Cake\Database\Query must be compatible with Authorization\Policy\BeforeScopeInterface::beforeScope(?Authorization\IdentityInterface $identity, mixed $resource, string $action): mixed in

Change your type hinting to match the BeforeScopeInterface in vendor/cakephp/authorization/src/Policy/BeforeScopeInterface.php

The interface definition:

public function beforeScope(?IdentityInterface $identity, mixed $resource, string $action): mixed;

i.e.

beforeScope(IdentityInterface $user, mixed $resource, string $action): mixed
{
     if ($user->getOriginalData()->is_trial_user) {
            return $query->where(['Articles.is_paid_only' => false]);
     }
}

@jmcd73

mixed $resource

mixed $query

is what you might want to use.

You can still annotate it as real query in the docblock above. This way you have autocomplete and PHPStorm also knows what this class is inside.
