It would appear that this occurs for custom Recent Activity blocks created based on the activity block-type. It does not occur with the pre-made activity block that the installer creates.

Apparently the default settings from a block-type are not copied over for any block-type when you create a new block based on another block. Additionally, manual settings on any block, custom or not, that has been edited from its default state cannot be read because json_decode is used against serialized data.

In order to fix all of these problems on existing blocks, an upgrade script is probably necessary. But you can also get a working block by creating a new one after making the following changes:

In vault/core/controller/cp/block/base/vw.php, find:

Code:

$blockdm->set('data', serialize($data));

Replace with:

Code:

$blockdm->set('data', json_encode($data));

In vault/core/model/rebuild/vw.php, find:

Code:

'varname' => '',

After it, add:

Code:

'defaults' => '',

Find:

Code:

$prep['t']['fields']['varname'] => '',

After it, add:

Code:

$prep['t']['fields']['defaults'] => '',

In vault/core/model/block/vw.php, find:

Code:

$data = $blockinfo['data']; $data = json_decode($data, true);

Replace with:

Code:

$data = array(); if (!empty($blockinfo['defaults'])) { $defaults = json_decode($blockinfo['defaults'], true); if (!$defaults) { $defaults = @unserialize($blockinfo['defaults']); } if (is_array($defaults)) { $data = array_merge($data, $defaults); } } if (!empty($blockinfo['data'])) { $customdata = json_decode($blockinfo['data'], true); if (!$customdata) { $customdata = @unserialize($blockinfo['data']); } if (is_array($customdata)) { $data = array_merge($data, $customdata); } }

This is a fresh installation with nothing customized though.

Added an upgrade script to fix existing blocks, even though the above code should allow them to work as expected anyway.

Marking as fixed in the next release.

Not sure how you got this issue to occur on a pre-installed block, but the code I posted above should make any unreadable block configs become readable again, regardless how they got into that state. You may have to edit an affected block to trigger it to be read into the cache again.
