   Hi,

   It looks like popularity contest stopped working for me and I see the following PHP error in my logs.

   HP Fatal error: Call to a member function create_post_record() on a non-object in /<webserver path>/wp-content/plugins/popularity-contest/popularity-contest.php on line 2149

   Using Popularity Contest Version 2.0b2

   Anyone else have this problem?

   That's supposed to be "PHP Fatal Error", not "HP".

   It looks like the problem might be that the global $akpc variable is false when akpc_publish() gets called.

   Thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

   Appreciate the reply jproducer, that link goes to a patch for an old version of popularity contest designed for WordPress 2.5 though...the PHP Fatal Error fix discussed in that article does not apply to the latest version of PC.

   I made an attempt to fix this error on my own by changing line 2149 from this:

   $akpc->create_post_record($post_id);

   To this:

   if ($akpc) $akpc->create_post_record($post_id);

   Will mark this thread as resolved if this works.
