Bug: mismatched arguments passed to str_replace()

Hi,

When we used the plugin, we had an error that broke our website.

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: str_replace(): Argument #2 ($replace) must be of type string when argument #1 ($search) is a string in wp-content/plugins/secure-copy-content-protection/public/class-secure-copy-content-protection-public.php:1498

This appears to be happening when $search is a string and $replace is an array of user roles.

Here’s a sample stack trace:

#0 wp-content/plugins/secure-copy-content-protection/public/class-secure-copy-content-protection-public.php(1498): str_replace('%%post_author_r...', Array, '<p>You cannot c...')
#1 wp-content/plugins/secure-copy-content-protection/public/class-secure-copy-content-protection-public.php(1423): Secure_Copy_Content_Protection_Public->sccp_replace_message_variables('<p>You cannot c...', Array)
#2 wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(324): Secure_Copy_Content_Protection_Public->ays_get_notification_text('')
#3 wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(348): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array)

#13 wp-includes/template-loader.php(106): include('...')
#14 wp-blog-header.php(19): require_once('...')
#15 index.php(17): require('...')
#16 {main}

thrown in wp-content/plugins/secure-copy-content-protection/public/class-secure-copy-content-protection-public.php on line 1498

For now, we fixed this by 1) getting the first role from the array if it has values, and 2) skipping str_replace() call if the array is empty.

We’re running this with:

• PHP 8.2
• WordPress 6.8.3
• Secure Copy Content Protection 5.0.2

Thanks for your time!
