 * Hi, we’re seeing the following error after upgrading today (site-wide):
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING
   or ‘(‘ in /home4/biglick/public_html/GodStrongWomen/wp-content/plugins/wpdiscuz/
   forms/wpDiscuzForm.php on line 4
 * I’ve temporarily changed the plugin directory name to deactivate.

 * Also please make sure you use PHP 5.4 and higher. Could you please check the 
   hosting service PHP version?

 * Still getting the same error.
 * I’ve deactivated, deleted, reinstalled, and I’m using 5.4 on Hostgator.

 * Could you please try to change PHP version to 5.6 through cPanel, the 5.4 is 
   too old for current softwares. It should be very easy to do.

 * In my cpanel php settings, it looks as if I was set to 5.2. I changed to 5.4 
   and it’s now working. I may change to 5.6 as long as other scripts are not adversely
   affected.
 * Thanks for the support.

 * If you gt some error you can revert it back, but having PHP 5.4 is not good, 
   it’s not up to date.
