 * Good afternoon,
 * I found out about this string locator tool and thought this would be a great 
   resource when editing my company wordpress website. I have installed the latest
   version, however upon trying to use the plugin, I get the following error:
 * 200 SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0
 * I am not savy with error codes and was hoping someone might be able to elaborate
   on the above or point me in the right direction for a fix.
 * Thanks in advance!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2F200-syntaxerror-please-help%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hiya,
 * When do you receive this error message (what screen were you on, and could you
   perhaps share what you were searching for and such?)

 * Marius,
 * I received this error when trying to search the word “Test”. I was in the String
   Locator Search page under the Tools tab.
 * I will mention that I have since updated both my WordPress and Woocommerce and
   now the String Locator seems to be working just fine. I’m not sure what the issue
   was but seems to be working now.
 * Thank you for your help Marius!
