Plugin causes 404 on admin bulk comment action
-
With the plugin enabled, ticking a comment in the admin and choosing the bulk action “unapprove” causes a 404 error. The reason appears to be because the URL is indeed incorrect:
https://www.example.com/wp/wp-admin/edit-comments_php?paged=1&unapproved=1
Notice the underscore instead of period (_php and not .php).
I can confirm that this does not happen with the plugin disabled.
Commenting out this line of the plugin also stops the issue:
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', array( $this, 'enqueue_scripts' ) );

It looks like the problem stems from here:
When there are no query string parameters in the referer, the string becomes
/wp/wp-admin/edit-comments.php=which is invalid and appears to cause the strange behaviour.It seems that this block of code doesn’t actually work anyway, at least in my testing on Chrome:
const params = new URLSearchParams( '/wp-comments.php?foo=bar' ); params.delete( 'foo' ); params.toString(); // '%2Fwp-comments.php%3Ffoo=bar'You need to pass in only the query string to
URLSearchParams
