Fatal error attempting to display an incomplete product

[bobbingwide]

I created a new test product to test an issue with gvg_bulk_update and attempted to view it. It was almost completely undefined except for the title and dimensions; the editor wouldn't allow me to save the product without specifying the width and height. On the front end the following Fatal was displayed.

Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: number_format(): Argument #1 ($num) must be of type float, string given in C:\apache\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\vgc\woocommerce\content-single-product.php:111 Stack trace:

Problem occurs in PHP 8.0 as well as 8.1 and 8.2.

This problem occurs when the price is not set. The gvg_product_range plugin also fails when the price is not set.

Workaround

• Ensure that the product price is set before publishing the product.
