According to the WordPress documentation, the WP_User constructor takes
User's ID, a WP_User object, or a user object from the DB.
as its first parameter.As I understand it, that means the plugin in this revision is trying to pass a username as this parameter, which will therefore never succeed to get the appropriate user data.
Passing
0
as the first parameter is the same as the default constructor, and fixes this error in my testing.source: http://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_user/__construct/
