 * I already looked in the code a zillion times and I can’t find anything wrong.
   Hence WordPress just replyies each time I want to activate the plugin “Plugin
   could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.” and nothing else 
   at all I don’t know how can I solve this.
 * This plugin is completely stopped due to something that I cannot understand.
 * If anyone could help I can send the code.

 * Well since you haven’t given any indication of what plugin, then redownload the
   plugin.
 * If it is a plugin you are developing, please paste all the code into a pastebin
   such as [wordpress.pastebin.ca](http://wordpress.pastebin.ca), and report the
   link back here. Maybe someone can spot your problem.

 * Now I know that Shorten2List and Shorten2Ping are conflicting somehow. Where,
   I cannot even guess.
 * Deactivated Shorten2Ping and activated Shorten2List. All OK!
    Retry to activate
   Shorten2Ping and the error come back now on Shorten2Ping. Deactivated Shorten2List
   and activated Shorten2Ping. All OK! Error on Shorten2List.
 * Already replaced all my functions with a prefix.
 * New code at [http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1787044](http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1787044)

 * Solved!
 * Had to subclass all shortner functions and use them from an external class.
 * Hope this may help others.
