Description

Contact Form 7 can causing Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_extra_permastruct() on null in /path/to/wp-includes/link-template.php on line 274 if installed as mu-plugins on very first time the site run after being installed.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install brand new bedrock site
2. Add wpackagist-plugin/contact-form-7 line in extra.installer-paths.web/app/mu-plugins/{$name}/ of your composer.json file. Like this:

{
"extra": {
  "installer-paths": {
    "public/app/mu-plugins/{$name}/": [
      "wpackagist-plugin/contact-form-7",
      "type:wordpress-muplugin"
    ],
    "public/app/plugins/{$name}/": ["type:wordpress-plugin"],
    "public/app/themes/{$name}/": ["type:wordpress-theme"]
  },
  "wordpress-install-dir": "public/wp"
}
}

3. Install Contact Form 7 using composer require wpackagist-plugin/contact-form-7 command
4. Setup database and update your .env file
5. Run wp core install ...
6. Visit the website url from browser or try to run another wp-cli commands.

Expected behavior: This should not happened

Actual behavior: As described above

Reproduces how often: The issue only happened on the very first time after installing WordPress core, in my case using wp core install command. It could simply reload the page or re-run the same wpcli command and it's just completely gone.

Versions

Any version of autoloader. Since this autoloader still included on bedrock repository, to be exact. And it's happens anywhere. I meant, my local is running Windows & WSL (ubuntu 18.04), also it happened on CI (github action with ubuntu-latest image) and Heroku. See feryardiant/wpdev#39

Additional information

I'm not sure if the issue was solely because of this autoloader, it might be because of latest update of contact-form-7 plugin as well.

Apology for my poor english, I'm doing my best 😅
Sincerely 😬
