 * Good morning,
 * I recently updated to the newest version of your plug in and now when I try to
   edit a listing it keeps expiring and won’t let it publish. I rolled back the 
   plug in to the previous version and was able to renew the listing but that was
   just a work around as apparently their is an error with your plug in according
   to the email we received.
 * This is the error we have received:
    An error of type E_COMPILE_ERROR was caused
   in line 36 of the file /www/wp-content/plugins/business-directoryplugin/includes/
   admin/seongs/class-seongs.php. Error message: require_once(): Failed opening 
   required ‘/www/wpcontent/plugins/business-directory
 * According to our hosting company:
 *     ```
       What this means is that when the plugin attempted an action it failed to find a file, on closer inspection, it looks like there is a typo in the plugin code:
   
       '/www/wpcontent/plugins/business-directory
       Please note the 
       /wpcontent/ of which should actually be 
       /wp-content/ and also 
       /plugins/business-directoryvs 
       /plugins/business-directoryplugin
       ```
   
 * Can you please advise how we resolve this.
 * Thank you!

 * Hi [@spowell16](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spowell16/)
 * Thank you for reaching out about this. I’m Garret from the customer success team
   and I’m sorry to hear that you’re having a problem here. I’ll be happy to help!
 * Our developers are aware of the issue with the listings getting stuck in draft.
   We are working to have this fixed shortly.
 * As for the error, that file isn’t a part of our plugin. Have you done any custom
   modifications to the code? The _seongs/class-seongs.php_ file isn’t something
   that’s a part of our plugin.
 * Please let me know.
 * Best,

 * Our service provider looked at the fatal error incorrectly and that file name
   is not correct. Fatal error regarding your plug in has ceased but even rolling
   it back it isn’t working correctly as each time a new listing is added or any
   modifications ot existing listings are made we have to click on renew listing
   or the listing won’t publish. We have listings set to never expire and never 
   experienced this before.

 * Hey [@spowell16](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spowell16/)
 * Can you please confirm that Business Directory is up to date?
 * The latest release is version 5.15.2. If you aren’t up to date, then please update
   the plugin and let me know if you still experience this issue.

 * I had to roll it back to 5.15 as the last update made the listings go into draft
   mode only and wouldn’t publish. Now 5.15 publishes only after clicking renew 
   listing even though the listings are set to never expire.
