PHP Deprecated usage of preg_match()

  • Since PHP 8.2 (Probably more like 8.0 but we’ve updated straight to 8.2) we’ve got the following PHP error:

    PHP Deprecated: preg_match(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($subject) of type string is deprecated in /home/wp/disk/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/webp-express/webp-express.php on line 45

    The problem is the following line:

    if( preg_match( '/webp-express-web-service$/', $requestUriNoQS ) )

    Which should be like below to avoid errors:

    if( $requestUriNoQS AND preg_match( '/webp-express-web-service$/', $requestUriNoQS ) )
