 * I get the following msg after activating Best Import free version plug-in, I 
   click on the “Best Import” link in the left hand WP menu and I see the following
   message in the right hand screen where the plug in should be displayed.
    Parse
   error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/www/dev.kikuchi-online.com/
   artlyst-staging/wp-content/plugins/best-import/admin/admin.php on line 2
 * I have installed it here:
    [http://dev.kikuchi-online.com/artlyst-staging/](http://dev.kikuchi-online.com/artlyst-staging/)
   WordPress 4.5.1 running FoundationPress theme.
 * Please can you let me know how to get it working.
 * Thanks
    Pete

 * Hello,
 * As we can see, the error relates namespace. Namespaces are supported since PHP
   5.3. What version of PHP do you use?
 * Best regards,
