Describe the bug
Using the Application shareX with yourls url shortner, the application does not get the short url, throwing only a PHP Error in the server log.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior. This is mandatory if you expect someone to fix the problem. Example:

1. Go to https://getsharex.com/ and download it.
2. Right Click on shareX Icon in the background running apps, select Destinations > Destinations settings > Tab URL shorteners > yourls
3. Change the API URL & API (does not matter if user & password) to your own site url, close window
4. Right Click on shareX Icon again, and select " Open main window "
5. Klick on Debug and select " url shortner "
6. A window opens up, and shows you only the full url, not the short one.
7. Check your PHP logs & also look to the server logs for 500 error.
8. Check Adminpanel if URL got successful shorten.

Expected behavior
Getting the shorturl in the shareX Application window, after uploading any files from your pc or using the option " Upload > Shorten URL "

Actual behavior
shareX application throws a " success ", but gives you only a full url instead of short and full url.
It successful shortens the URL (Adminpanel), but fails to get the short url?

Thanks!
My bad for not searching the PHP Error output :/

Error messages are useless if nobody uses them when looking for solutions, lol 😂

[ploedman]

Wasn't sure about the error output, because there was more than one 😅
