Joomla! 5.x Coding • flink property is missing on menu item

Hello devs !

I try to make a item menu on my front (nothing that crazy, just a basic item menu for acces to my component view); so i made a default.xml form on my tmpl view folder, and when i try to use that new item menu, i got an error that says :

"Deprecated: htmlspecialchars(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in C:\laragon\www\Joomla\modules\mod_menu\tmpl\default_component.php on line 72 ".

So i invastigated, line 72 of default_component.php file is :

echo HTMLHelper::_('link', OutputFilter::ampReplace(htmlspecialchars($item->flink, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8', false)), $linktype, $attributes);

this line display the link of the menu item, and the error occurs beacause it seems something is null on it, so i dump($item) (see the attachment).

Yep as you can see on se screenshot, it seems my $item->flink is null, i saw Joomla is supposed to automaticly deduct the flink from the link, and we can see the link is here at place.

Soooo yeah....i'm a bit confused right now, anyone have a clue about this ?

Thanks !
