    When I try to activate the WP Google Maps plugin, the “Maps” tab doesn’t appear on my dashboard. If I click either “Settings” or “Map Editor” in the plugins menu, a page loads with the following WP_DEBUG message:

    Fatal error: Class ‘DOMElement’ not found in <..>/wp-content/plugins/wp-google-maps/includes/class.dom-element.php on line 7

    I can’t figured out why it can’t find this class on my web server, which is running CentOS7. Both servers are running Apache on a LAMP stack. The plugin is working perfectly on my test server, which is running Ubuntu. I made sure that my web server was upgraded to the latest version of PHP, and I tested it in different browsers, but neither of those steps seemed to help.

    Could you point me in the right direction?

  • Hi there

    Thank you for getting in touch, my apologies for the delay in responding.

    You need to install the PHP DOM library, which our plugin requires as of 7.10.00.

    You can see documentation on installing that library here

    I hope that helps?

    Kind regards

    Thanks for your response Perry. I fixed the issue not long after submitting this ticket, and I believe the problem was that I had not installed the PHP DOM library, as you said. After upgrading to PHP 7, there were several libraries that required updating including this one.
