I added the above code in my EA Genesis Child Theme's single.php file. It shows the following error.
Warning: urlencode() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given in F:\Do Not Delete\LOCALHOST\htdocs\wp\wp-includes\formatting.php on line 5371

I don't see the urlencode() function in the above code snippet so I don't believe it is responsible for the error
