 ''This ticket was mentioned in
 [https://github.com/buddypress/buddypress/pull/412 PR #412] on
 [https://github.com/buddypress/buddypress/ buddypress/buddypress] by
 [https://profiles.wordpress.org/rollybueno/ @rollybueno].''
 The exists() method was attempting to convert a WP_Error object to a
 string when
 checking for profile data existence. This fix:

 1. Initializes $retval as false by default
 2. Properly handles WP_Error and empty results from database queries
 3. Ensures consistent boolean return value throughout the method
 4. Removes unnecessary boolean casting in apply_filters_ref_array

 This prevents the "Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to
 string" error
 while maintaining the expected boolean return value of the exists()
 method.
