Hi tech55541,
Both the Privilege Menu plugin you are using as well as the WPEx-thoughts theme are using an out-of-date version of an external library (TGMPA) and they really should upgrade to the latest version. /cc @fuzzguard
Upgrading that library to the current version will fix this.
In the mean time, you can fix this yourself by applying the upgrade to your installation.
- Download the current version of the library from http://tgmpluginactivation.com/download/ – choose ‘plugin’ and as text-domain set ‘tgmpa’ or just download the zip or tarball file linked in the paragraph just below the form (not in the table! those are old).
- Unzip the file and
- Copy/upload (via FTP) just the
class-tgm-plugin-activation.php file to the /wp-content/plugins/privilege-menu/ and the /wp-content/themes/wpex-thoughts/functions/ directory of your website, replacing the existing class-tgm-plugin-activation.php files.
Once you’ve done that, all should be fine again.
All the same, I’d highly recommend that @fuzzguard as well as your theme developer release a new version of their plugin/theme which includes this upgrade. Please contact your theme author about this.
Hope this helps.
Smile,
Juliette
Thanks, I will work on this here when I have some time.
Thanks jrf for your input!
tech55541,
I have now upgraded the version of TGM Plugin Activation to 2.5.2
Please download the latest version and it should fix your issue.
Thanks @fuzzguard! The error will disappear with that.
(FYI: I expect v 2.6.0 to be released in the next few weeks)
Now let’s hope the theme will upgrade too as they are using very old (> 3 years old) version ….
Let hope!!
I’ve signed our support email to the GitHub repository so we should get alerts when the TGM Plugin Activation updates to a new version and we can then update our code.
Hey everyone,
I got it updated after I replaced that file in my theme. Unfortunately, WPExplorer has ignored my numerous attempts to contact them so I have to fix this old theme all by myself. It is a nice starter theme that is really easy to customize, I can’t complain to much.
Thanks.
@tech55541 Glad to hear you got it sorted. You should be fine now (even with updates – as the plugin loads before the theme, the TGMPA version included with the plugin will load and as @fuzzguard has said he’ll keep that up to date (thanks!), you should be fine.)
