M2.4.7, v1.5.3: $parent is set to null but needs to be checked before any function is called

ISSUE:

I'm getting the following exception:

Error: Call to a member function getName() on null in /Users/gaz/Sites/nws2/http/vendor/bsscommerce/simple-detail-configurable/Helper/ProductData.php:310

This is because the recent changes added to your module. It's fine that $parent is set to null but it needs to be checked before any function is called on it.

SOLUTION:

To resolve the issue, please edit the file app/code/Bss/Simpledetailconfigurable/Helper/ProductData.php as below:
