 * Dear athenagap,
 * Thanks for your post.
    Please be kindly informed that this issue is related to
   your PHP version which is not compatible with the latest version of the plugin.
   You can either update your PHP version or use the solution provided in this forum:

 * Still can’t make this work. GoDaddy verifies that our php is higher than 5.5.
   Is there a pending release to fix this or should we find another plugin?

 * Dear wrdslngr,
 * Please try to replace your current version of the plugin with the one downloaded
   from this [link](https://www.dropbox.com/s/eidoir9oi557ln6/forms-contact-master-fatalerror.zip?dl=0)
 * Clear your browser cache after installing the plugin.
    We will wait for your 
   results.
 * Thanks
