This plugin works best with WP2.5 * Thread Starter [getwitit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/getwitit/) * (@getwitit) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799187) * hey thanks for the quick response. My wp version is 2.5.1. But before I upgraded from 2.5 to 2.5.1, I tried exactly what you recommended with creating a dir named ar_gwa in the plugins dir. Unfortunately I am getting the same error in 2.5.1 as I did in 2.5. It doesn’t seem like anyone is having this trouble but me huh? * Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /save4real.net/wp-content/plugins/ar_gwa/ar_gwa.php on line 993 * [pomspot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pomspot/) * (@pomspot) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799314) * That is usually produced by a code formatting error like an extra comma or missing semi-colon or bracket? I would expect everybody would have this problem? * [pomspot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pomspot/) * (@pomspot) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799424) * If you are having this problem please try the [plugin file here](http://cookies.getwebactive.com/downloads/ar_gwa_2-0-2.zip) instead. * Just replace the `ar_gwa.php` in the plugin directory with the one linked above. * Very few of you have had this problem but if it works let me know and I’ll make a revision. * Good Luck. * [kzintz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kzintz/) * (@kzintz) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799432) * I have the same error with wordpress 2.5.1 * Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /save4real.net/wp-content/plugins/ar_gwa/ar_gwa.php on line 993 * even replacing the new ar_gwa.php file in my ar_gwa directory gives same result..

I get these errors: * With the old file: Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

Now I’m off to see if the plugin actually behaves as it should under this new configuration. * [suwellam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suwellam/) * (@suwellam) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799449) * I have big problem installing this autoresponder on version 2.5 or 2.5.1 or 2.6 * the same error **Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION** why have we to suffer in installing this error ridden plug-in? * can any one tell me of any other plug-in that works * all your solutions, with respect, did not work * [suwellam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suwellam/) * (@suwellam) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799457) * Hi all **autoresponder errors have been resolved in the new updated version 2.1.1** **thanks for the author of the plug-in** * it installs very well now with no errors * London, UK * === [GWA] AutoResponder === Contributors: pomspot Donate link: [http://cookies.getwebactive.com/](http://cookies.getwebactive.com/) Tags: autoresponder, mailing list, list builder Requires at least: 2.1 Tested up to: 2.6 Stable tag: 2.1.1 * A plugin to add an AutoResponder and Opt-in Mail List Builder to your weblog. * [pomspot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pomspot/) * (@pomspot) * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gwa-autoresponder-parse-error/#post-799458) * Hi all, * I apologize for the number and frequency of the updates but I do try to offer new features as well as the bug fixes whenever I release an updated version. * For this plugin to operate it relies a lot on your server configuration to be correct.
