Description (last modified by sabernhardt)

I am trying to figure out what is going on on many of the WordPress websites I maintain. They are all up to date and on PHP 8.0 or higher. Here is an example of the PHP Warning I am getting in the error log. I don't want to make changes to the canonical.php file because it will simply be overwritten with the next WordPress core update. I'm trying to figure out if it is a WordPress core issue or a conflict with a theme or plugin. Although these websites have different themes and different plugins, which makes me suspect it might be a WordPress Core issue. Here is the Error: 

[07-Nov-2024 17:10:26 UTC] PHP Warning:  Undefined array key "host" in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-includes/canonical.php on line 716
[07-Nov-2024 17:10:26 UTC] PHP Warning:  Undefined array key "host" in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-includes/canonical.php on line 727

Welcome to Trac, @designdata2013, and thanks for the report.

This issue is being tracked in #34353. IIRC, there is a challenge of isolating how to reproduce this issue outside specific environments (e.g. if it could be unit tested).

You can use isset($arrayhost) to check this or add a default value to avoid warnings.

  1. Sometimes themes or plugins may not be fully compatible with PHP 8. Make sure all plugins and themes are updated to the latest version.
