 * I cannot enter coupon codes. As soon as I click the coupon tab in store settings
   I get the message:
    Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /public_html/
   handpaintedsilkscarves.com.au/wp-content/plugins/marketpress/marketpress.php 
   on line 5607
 * Line 5607 $discount = (isset($coupons[$new_coupon_code][‘discount’]) && $coupons[
   $new_coupon_code][‘discount_type’] == ‘amt’) ? round($coupons[$new_coupon_code][‘
   discount’], 2) : $coupons[$new_coupon_code][‘discount’];
 * I’m running WordPress 3.4.2 and Marketpress 2.6.2
 * Hope you can help.
 * Cheers, M.
