As well, only the first couple installed plugins are listed and nothing else. When I deactivate the plugin all goes to normal. * Has anybody else encountered this? Is there something I can do to fix this? I’d really love to use Google+ commenting system on my blog (even more than FB) and this plugin is laid out perfectly. * Thanks for the help! * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gplus-comments/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gplus-comments/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * [Brandon Holtsclaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bholtsclaw/) * (@bholtsclaw) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700587) * I’ve narrowed it down , will have a fix uploaded here in a moment * [Brandon Holtsclaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bholtsclaw/) * (@bholtsclaw) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700618) * 1.1.0 fixes this , it has been uploaded. * Thread Starter [stevie-b](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stevie-b/) * (@stevie-b) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700697) * Hi Brandon I updated and then it crashed my whole site and I had to uninstalled the plugin through my FTP client. I waited about a day and tried installing the plugin afresh, and this time it installed but it won’t work and gives me this warning: * > Google+ Comments for WordPress requires PHP 5.3+ and will not work unless you > upgrade PHP. * I really liked this plugin the best because I have some posts that have so many comments I don’t want to lose them if I install other Google+ plugins and I liked how yours had the tabs where you could alternate between native commenting and trackbacks. * I don’t want to have too many versions of comments on my site and I liked yours best. * How do I upgrade my php or find out what version my site has? * [patrickhealy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickhealy/) * (@patrickhealy) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700698) * I’d love to know this as well. I thought I was on the most recent version of PHP. * [Brandon Holtsclaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bholtsclaw/) * (@bholtsclaw) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700707) * Patrick, no, PHP 5.4 is the latest stable release, and the plugin requires at lease version 5.3 ( that was released July 2009 ) … some hosting providers like hostgator and godaddy do not have 5.3+ enabled by default it seems ( its unfortunate as 5.2 no longer gets security updates so should not be used at all ) * See this thread [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-182?replies=11](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-182?replies=11) * [patrickhealy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickhealy/) * (@patrickhealy) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700741) * Got it.

It kicks the other G+ comment plugins’ butts… * Is there anything else I I’ve not tried or that could be the problem? I’m using the latest version of StandardTheme for my site… * [Brandon Holtsclaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bholtsclaw/) * (@bholtsclaw) * [12 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-comments-plugin-update-causing-errors/#post-3700752) * it has nothing to do with your theme or plugin settings etc , it is something your hosting provider must either instruct you to do or do themselfs depending on the provider.
