I noticed an issue while testing but it does not appear to be a regression. I opened a new issue to fix it:

• Dashboard sharing confirmation appears in settings when no roles are shared for module #6633

QA Update: ⚠️

I am coming across an issue with the tour tooltips that appear to be a regression because I am unable to recreate on 1.94.0.

For the new dashboard navigation tour tooltip when a user updates Site Kit from a version older than 1.25.0. On the main branch as you go through the steps, on the last tooltip, a fatal error appears.

I am wondering if it is related to the GA4 Reporting work we’re doing because the final step is the Search traffic widget on the dashboard. Just dashboardSharing and ga4ActivationBanner feature flags were enabled, but the issue still arises when they're disabled. You can see it in action on the screencast:

Here's a screenshot of the error messages:

@wpdarren I'm able to reproduce mentioned issue on 1.95.0.

• Tested GA4 activation banner set up.

QA Update: ⚠️

In AdSense settings, when you click on the See full details in AdSense link you redirected to a 404.

I get the same issue on a few different test sites. This wasn't an issue when I tested 1.94.0.

The requested URL /adsense/start?source=site-kit&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheremotehive.com&pli=1 was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

When I change to the latest release the issue still exists, so the issue is on Google side, not the plugin.

The 404 status suggests that the URL has changed permanently, I wonder if we should investigate and fix in this release?

I am unsure when the URL was changed but it might cause support tickets.

• Verified the changes I’ve been involved with.
• Performed some ad-hoc testing.

Found no issues beyond those that have already been raised. I have raised a PR to fix this bug that @wpdarren spotted.

QA ✅

Smoke tested and went through site setup and upgrades without any issues aside from existing ones; I tested before the above PR mentioned by @techanvil was merged but I tested that in the PR and it seemed fine 🙂 .
