Description

I just filed this bug report:
https://dev.tiki.org/item8492-Error-on-tiki-index_p-php-Too-late-to-modify-headers-error-shown-in-wizard-for-tiki-admins-in-new-installs

as user "xavi", thorugh File a bug wiki page.
After hitting save, I saw this error message (below) where the wiki page should have provided feedback to the user (plugin tracker feedback).

I did set the importance to 9 because it's very discouraging to new devs or users to attempt to report bugs at the bug tracker and have the sensation that their time and report might be lost (it triggers the sensation the tiki can be unreliable - dangerous effect to our comunity)

Fixed with commits:
5be09681 and 63297855 (and backported to 26.x)

Also updated "contains" documentation. The whole idea behind original implementation is a bit wrong as parentheses are used for formula and (1,2) doesn't really make sense for a vector value in that context. Also, ... is not the correct syntax. eval formula can be invoked by (eval ...) without the inner parentheses. I am not sure which tiki versions are affected but it must have been a while since this hasn't really worked.
The fixes include change of syntax and quite a few other bugs when managing activity stream rules and formula inspection of event triggers.

The actual issue was an advanced activity rule for the bug tracker which used the contains formula incorrectly. There were also a bunch of other issues saving activity rules and triggering them while saving (inspecting the formula). All fixed and deployed to dev.tiki.org
