    Great plugin for the need! Just having an issue on the activation, and i have yet to find anyone having a similar issue – Can anyone shed any light?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hey @lyle,

    it seems that your php installation doesn’t allow arrow functions. Do you have php 7.4 or older or deactivated arrow functions?

    Thanks for the quick reply Rockiger. I am in fact pretty new to local installations, I just checked and its 7.31… is there a quick commannd i can run in VS to update this? I was getting this setup for a developper who was going to implement this, so I am basically just doing the initial stuff but got stuck. Your support here is awesome thanks so much

    Strange, you shouldn’t been allowed to activate the plugin as PHP 7.4+ is required.

    Unfortunately, I can’t help with the update of your PHP version. I recommend using Local as a dev environment for WordPress.

    PS: If you like the support or the plugin, consider leaving a review.
