Subject: [PATCH] Fix deprecation warning in Notification.php by handling null
 values in preg_quote()

Addressed a deprecation warning in `Notification.php` related to the `preg_quote()` function. The warning occurred because `preg_quote()` was being passed `null` values, which is deprecated in PHP 8.2.
