This cannot be explained without the full sentence.
Can you give the whole sentence, please?

Okay, It is what Kim Kardashian said in the TV show.
She said “I just launched SKIMS. And I’ve been debating if I need a pee hole in certain of the things.”

LOL
I assume that SKIMS is a clothing line. (I hope so!)
In this use, it means "in some of the things,"
"in some specific things but not others" or
"in some but not all of them."
In most cases, you will not see "of" in this use.
It is OK, but not so common.
It is more common to say "in certain [+ noun]"
such as "in certain things" "in certain products" "in certain designs"
"in certain items"
So this example could be
"...And I've been debating if I need a pee hole in certain items."
--------------------------
This is a completely different meaning to "certain of..."
as in this sentence.
"I am certain of my conclusion."
meaning I am sure that I am right, I am sure that what I have concluded about this is true.
"I am certain of the location, but I'm not certain of the time."
(you know where the meeting will be, but you don't know for sure what time it is scheduled for)

May I ask one more question?
In this Kim Kardashian case,
Does “I’ve been debating”mean “I’ve been wondering”?
Is my understanding correct?

Yes, in this case it means "I've been wondering" in the sense that I've been actively thinking about it myself.
I have been thinking about it in my own mind, considering the pros and cons, trying to decide what to do.
pros and cons
pros = reasons in favor of something
cons = reasons against something
--------------------------
Another way of using "I've been wondering..."
"I've been wondering..." can also be used for something that you want the answer to, but it would be information that you would have to get from the outside, not something that you can decide for yourself.
