 * I have never had an issue before but when I activate the plugin I get the error
   below.
 * Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp/sess_da24fa8e7ebea198030c35b6701267f3, O_RDWR)

   error could also be caused by uploads being disabled in your php.ini or by post_max_size
   being defined as smaller than upload_max_filesize in php.ini.

 * Hi Sylvia
 * Thanks for notifying me of the issue. Can you edit the main plugin file
 * easy-property-listings.php
 * at the top you will see
 * if( !session_id() ) {
    session_start(); }
 * change to
 * if( !session_id() ) {
    // session_start(); }
 * and let me know if that activates and works correctly.

 * Actually please replace
 * if( !session_id() ) {
    session_start(); }
 * with
 * if( ! session_id() && ! headers_sent() ) {
    session_start(); }
 * I have not come across this error till now.

   he WordPress plugin installer. Can you let me know your results so I can activate
   the update on WordPress.org
 * Also,

 * Wow you are amazingly fast responding. I am still getting an error, pasted below.
   Should I uninstall some plugins and see if that is causing a conflict?

 * I realized I didn’t answer all your questions. My WordPress is up to date. PHP
   Version 5.4.29.
 * I am happy to give you dashboard access if you send me a direct email.
 * Thank you again for the quick response and version update.
