Complex classes like Lsx_Bootstrap_Navwalker often do a lot of different things. To break such a class down, we need to identify a cohesive component within that class. A common approach to find such a component is to look for fields/methods that share the same prefixes, or suffixes. You can also have a look at the cohesion graph to spot any un-connected, or weakly-connected components.
Once you have determined the fields that belong together, you can apply the Extract Class refactoring. If the component makes sense as a sub-class, Extract Subclass is also a candidate, and is often faster.
While breaking up the class, it is a good idea to analyze how other classes use Lsx_Bootstrap_Navwalker, and based on these observations, apply Extract Interface, too.

This check looks for PHPDoc comments describing methods or function parameters that do not exist on the corresponding method or function.
Consider the following example. The parameter
$italyis not defined by the methodfinale(...).The most likely cause is that the parameter was removed, but the annotation was not.
