Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable

I am unable to install the Fluida theme. When I try to install Fluida I receive error messages about protypes.php lines #413 & #319 as shown below. The error repeated when I created a new wordpress installation and tried to install Fluida.
{1st try }
The WordPress installation was happy with the Twentyseventeen, Twentysixteen, and Twentyfifteen themes.
When I tried to install Fluida, the install stopped with the following error messages:
Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in D:\Server\data\htdocs\fluida\wp-content\themes\fluida\cryout\prototypes.php on line 413
(the above 8 times in a row, then)
&
Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in D:\Server\data\htdocs\fluida\wp-content\themes\fluida\cryout\prototypes.php on line 379
(the above 2 times, then)
&
Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in D:\Server\data\htdocs\fluida\wp-content\themes\fluida\cryout\prototypes.php on line 413
(the above 8 times)
At that point the dashboard moved about 3/4 of the way down from the top. The only tabs visible were Dashboard, Home, Updates, Posts, and Media. I logged out and in, and arrived to see the Dashboard 3/4 down.
{2nd try]
I removed that wordpress installation, cleaned up MySQL to remove the prefixes from the database, created yet another wordpress installation with a different database prefix. I logged in as administrator. The TwentySeventeen theme was fine and dashboard worked. I installed the TwentySixteen theme. Dashboard worked and all was well.
I found the Fluida Theme among the WordPress themes, and activated it.
It produced the same error messages and dashboard moved 3/4 down the screen.
A search of the internet and the cryoutcreations.eu was not helpful.
I would like to try the Fluida theme.
Thanks for any help available. Otherwise I’ll leave it as an unsolved puzzle and try something else.
