 * Hi,
 *  I just ran into php fatal error message in my errorlog, looks like group is 
   not finding wp_get_current_user. Get the error when I try to open Shareaholic
   plugin’s admin page through the dashboard. If I deactivate Groups plugin, shareaholic
   admin page comes up, otherwise, it fails to open.
 *  We are using the latest version of Groups plugin: 2.3.0
 *  Here is the stack trace:
