Hmm, that’s a new one. Something to do with your version of PHP. What seems to be perfectly correct code related to the “static” keyword and the scope resolution operator (“::”) when used with classes is not playing so nicely with your version. I will look into this. Do you know what version you’re using by any chance?
OK, thanks. I’m testing on 5.3.15 and there are no problems. Looking more into this…
OK, so after looking more into this, it looks like the best solution to this is to upgrade PHP to 5.3 or higher. According to this documentation, 5.2.x is no longer officially supported and users should upgrade to a newer version. However, this plugin also needs to more gracefully handle that error. I don’t think there’s a practical solution to fix this; would make the code much messier.
Forced my site to use php 5.3, but then got this error:
Fatal error: Class ‘SyncBuddyPress’ not found in /mypath/public_html/wp-content/plugins/autochimp/autochimp-plugins.php on line 220
Can you confirm that you have SyncBuddyPress.php in your autochimp/plugins folder?
Just to be sure, I even deleted AutoChimp completely and reinstalled from the repository and still get the same thing.
Does this also happen as soon as you activate the plugin? Or did you go to a different admin page?
As soon as I activate the plugin (takes the site down).
I am having a similar issue after activating I get
Fatal error: Class ‘SyncCimy’ not found in /home/content/36/11036636/html/wp-content/plugins/autochimp/autochimp-plugins.php on line 220
Same error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /…/autochimp/autochimp.php on line 841
Fatal error on my site, too. At the 2.10 upgrade activation.
Yep, installing this plugin update hosed my site. I had to rename the plugin folder to even get back into WP-admin. I’m on PHP 5.3.26 and nginx. Can’t determine what the root cause is, but this plugin update should be rescinded until further testing is done.
I installed the new update (2.10) and mailchimp no longer works on my web site. Got the following error message. (www.DxFoundation.org)
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/dxrick/dxfoundation.org/wp-content/plugins/autochimp/autochimp.php on line 841
Please help!
