# Bug Summary

I get an fatal error “Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string in /Users/tobbe/Local Sites/swishmodal/app/public/wp-content/mu-plugins/local-by-flywheel-live-link-helper.php on line 155”

# Steps to reproduce

This happens because the filter pre\_update\_option is assumed to deliver a string as the first parameter, the spec of this parameter is “mixed” and does sometimes contain an object.  
([pre\_update\_option – Hook | Developer.WordPress.org](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/pre_update_option/))

# Environment Info

- MacOS 12.1?
- What versions of site software (Nginx, Apache, PHP, MySQL) is used?
- Local 6.2.1 5711?
