me either…would be nice if all plugin developers HAD on their website a verison numbered backup…so taht I could go back and re download 4.1.6 and re install it – as it did work…
unlike 4.1.7 and 4.1.8!!!
…sigh….

updating the plugin will results in unaccessibile site, even wp-admin pages!!!
I need to ftp in my server, rename plugin folder to force plugin de-activaction.
Now when I try to activate sociable I get this error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_FUNCTION in /var/www/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/sociable/includes/class-sociable_Admin_Options.php on line 1342
Wish I had seen this sooner, now my site is down 🙁

an “unhappy” user
check my post for quick fix.
or blog post
Note: This fix is unofficial.
it worked for me!! thank you man 😉
the other possibility is to change php.ini switch
from short_open_tag = Off
to short_open_tag = On
which I would not recommend.
reason is given as comment in php.ini
—just in case you don’t have it
; This directive determines whether or not PHP will recognize code between
; <? and ?> tags as PHP source which should be processed as such. It’s been
; recommended for several years that you not use the short tag “short cut” and
; instead to use the full <?php and ?> tag combination. With the wide spread use
; of XML and use of these tags by other languages, the server can become easily
; confused and end up parsing the wrong code in the wrong context. But because
; this short cut has been a feature for such a long time, it’s currently still
; supported for backwards compatibility, but we recommend you don’t use them.
; Default Value: On
; Development Value: Off
; Production Value: Off
