This addresses a support forum topic:
The location where this error is occurring:
performance/plugins/optimization-detective/detect.js
Lines 558 to 560 in 85001b9
Normally the
urlMetricGroupCollectionis always populated whenWP_DEBUGis true:performance/plugins/optimization-detective/detection.php
Lines 148 to 150 in 85001b9
However, it seems at least in this case here, the HTML had been mutated to remove that object being passed to
detect(). So this PR hardens the logic to prevent an error from happening.Additionally, there is another benefit. Often when debugging Optimization Detective for sites in the wild, I'll use local overrides in Chrome to modify the HTML as follows:
isDebugtotruedetect.min.jswithdetect.jsHowever, when I do this, I then also need to open up
detect.jsand add another override to comment out this same line that tries to read from thegroup. By checking first to make sure that the property exists and is an array, then this will no longer be necessary when debugging sites in the field.
