Attempt to read property “slug” on array portfolio/portfolio.php on line 1312

$item_categories = get_the_terms( $the_id, $params['taxonomy'] );

			if( is_object( $item_categories ) || is_array( $item_categories ) )
			{
				foreach( $item_categories as $cat )
				{
					//fix for cyrillic, etc. characters - isotope does not support the % char
					$cat['slug'] = str_replace('%', '', $cat['slug'] );

					$sort_classes .= $cat['slug'] . '_sort ';
				}
			}

becomes

$item_categories = get_the_terms( $the_id, $params['taxonomy'] );

			if( is_object( $item_categories ) || is_array( $item_categories ) )
			{
				foreach( $item_categories as $cat )
				{
					//fix for cyrillic, etc. characters - isotope does not support the % char
					$cat->slug = str_replace('%', '', $cat->slug );

					$sort_classes .= $cat->slug . '_sort ';
				}
			}

Since they are objects, not arrays. I usually have custom post types and custom taxonomies. These are going through custom taxonomies in my current example.

The second one is what I’m changing it to – but I see what you mean, a fresh copy has these changes in them! But I have clients who when they auto-update are getting the old version of this code, and the site crashes, so I guess that’s where the investigation needs to go…. Let me check and see how they’re updating.

I’ve gotten a bit turned around, I think I’ve been staring at this problem too long. It seems that Enfold uses objects by default and that’s the problem, and that’s the error I’m getting.
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Attempt to assign property “slug” on array in */public_html/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/portfolio/portfolio.php:1312
and the manual fix I have to make is to switch them to arrays. (The opposite of what I said earlier).

I guess the question is why is $cat seen as an array here?

$item_categories = get_the_terms( $the_id, $params['taxonomy'] );
if( is_object( $item_categories ) || is_array( $item_categories ) ) {
  foreach( $item_categories as $cat ) {
    $cat->slug = str_replace('%', '', $cat->slug );
  }
}
