#41079 new defect (bug)

PHP Notice: Undefined offset: -1 in /var/www/html/live/wp-includes/rewrite.php

Description

Low priority, but I'm trying to reduce the size of my error logs, and this notice is a vast majority of it.

Issue lies at lines 376 & 378 in the "wp_resolve_numeric_slug_conflicts" function. Occurs when $postname_index is 0. With my limited understanding, it seems like that scenario can be skipped, so I added the below snippet to the "if" statement at line 363 in my build:

|| 0 === $postname_index

Please resolve in the next update. Thanks.

array_search() only returns NULL if invalid parameters are passed to it. So the question is, why the parameters are invalid in your case. 2c

Replying to Presskopp:

array_search() returns false if invalid parameters are passed to it. There is a gate at line 363 that checks for that, yet the result is getting past that.

Since $permastructs is the result of array_values(), it's safe to presume it is an indexed array. So if array_search() is not returning false, $postname_index is likely an index.

And since $permastructs[$postname_index - 1] at lines 376 & 378 are looking for an offset of -1, I presume $postname_index is 0.

ah, NULL vs 0
