 * Please post the PHP version you are using. This sees to be a version specific
   problem.

 * All right. The file mentioned in your error contains a function not supported
   by PHP v4. As PHP 4 is end-of-life since 2008 I will not fix this issue. Please
   update to PHP 5.
 * BTW: PHP 4.1.8 is REALLY OLD and has to be considered insecure!

 * Hi sorry, 4.1.8 is the version for myPhpAdmin. My php version is currently 5.2.17.
   Sorry for the wrong information.

 * PHP 5.2.x is not supported any more since January 2011, so you might consider
   to update. Which OS are you using?
 * The bug you mentioned is affecting PHP <= 5.2. I’ll have to think about if and
   how I’m going to fix this.

 * The fix seems to be easy. Could you please try to replace lines 51-68 in php/
   helper/admin_menu_helper.php by the following:
 *     ```
       function f_comment( $entry ){
       	return $entry[0] == T_COMMENT;
       }
       function rpr_admin_template_list()
       {
       	$dirname = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/recipepress-reloaded/templates/';
       	$templates = array();
   
       	if ($handle = opendir( $dirname )) {
       		while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
       			if( $file !='.' && $file !='..' && $file != '.svn' ) {
       				// Param parsing inspired by http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11504541/get-comments-in-a-php-file
       				// put in an extra function?
       				$params=array();
       				$filename = $dirname . $file . '/recipe.php';
   
       				$docComments = array_filter(
       						token_get_all( file_get_contents( $filename ) ),
       						/*function($entry) {
       							return $entry[0] == T_COMMENT;
       						}*/
       						"f_comment"
       				);
       ```
   
 * This should fix the problem. Thanks for testing this for me, as I can’t test 
   the plugin against all available PHP versions.
