 * Hi [@saludovencedores](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saludovencedores/),
 * According to the error message you shared the error is being caused by another
   plugin, not WP Popular Posts:
 * > /wordpress/plugins/**wpcomsh**/10.0.0-alpha+rolling.1781204104.ge2c5d55/**plugin-
   > hotfixes.php**(119) : eval()’d code(1): register_widget(‘PopularWidget’)
 * It seems to be a WordPress.com plugin? If so then please reach out to the WordPress.
