 * I just updated my wordpress site that has wordpress helpers installed and I’m
   getting the following error
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in …/wp-content/plugins/wp-helpers/
   parts/notices/new-features.php on line 9
 * Can you tell me what needs to be changed? Here’s the code in that file that was
   updated today…
 * ‘<?php
    /* Notice Type: updated Notice ID: wp_helpers_1_7_2 Capability: manage_options*/
 * printf(__(‘<h3>What\’s new in WordPress Helpers %1$s</h3>’), get_option(‘piklist_active_plugin_versions’)[‘
   wp-helpers/wp-helpers.php’][0]);
 * printf(__(‘%1$sDisable Emoji support%2$s →’), ‘[‘, ‘](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-in-new-featuresphp/&apos; . admin_url() . &apos;tools.php?page=piklist_wp_helpers&tab=writing)‘);’

 * Please replace the entire file with this:
 *     ```
       <?php
       /*
       Notice Type: updated
       Notice ID: wp_helpers_1_7_2
       Capability: manage_options
       */
   
       $options = get_option('piklist_active_plugin_versions');
   
       printf(__('<h3>What\'s new in WordPress Helpers %1$s</h3>'), $options['wp-helpers/wp-helpers.php'][0]);
   
       printf(__('%1$sDisable Emoji support%2$s →'), '<a href="' . admin_url() . 'tools.php?page=piklist_wp_helpers&tab=writing">', '</a>');
       ```
   
 * Let us know if that works.
