 * Hi,
 * After installing pixabay plugin, my network admin was blown off. I started getting
   this message:
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user() in /home/… /public_html/
   wp-includes/capabilities.php on line xyz
 * After searching for help in the WP forum, I tried adding this line of code in
   the capabilities.php file:
 * require_once(‘pluggable.php’) ?>
 * This led to a message that went something like – you are not a recognized user.
 * I have taken the plugin off by renaming the folder.
 * I am using WP 4.2.1 version.
 * Please help.
 * Thanks,
 * Amit

 * Similar for me with 4.2, see [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-main-site-plugin-activation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-main-site-plugin-activation).

 * I believe, we’ve found the cause, but not actually seeing the bug on our test
   system, we cannot confirm it. So, here’s a new version that should work for the
   network installations. It would be great if somebody could test it:

 * Installation worked. I can see the icon next to the media library icon on my 
   post toolbox. But I am facing a new issue:
 * After selecting an image from the search results of Pixabay from the pop-up window,
   I get the normal ‘uploading to media library’ message.
 * But it is followed by another message – ‘You don’t have permission to edit this
   post’.
 * So I am not able to insert the selected pic in my post.
 * I tried to log out and re-login, but get same results.
 * I am using the Fine theme by Cyberchimps.

 * Thanks for testing!
 * Got it – we’ll have that fixed as well in version 2.10, which should be available
   as of tonight. A test version can be found again here:
