Your PHP is too old for some code I used (http://docs.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php) — let me make a quick modification and get back to you.

Well, you learn something new every day. 😉
The following is fairly common to define a new class object:
$var = new $classname();
And the same can be done for static classes:
$var = $classname::method();
But only since PHP v5.3! (shaking head)
I’ve modified the code to hard-code the static class names instead. I try and avoid hard-coding stuff when I can, but in this case there’s no way around it since a lot of people are still running older versions of PHP.
Thanks for letting me know, and I hope it didn’t cause too many issues for you. I’ve updated the current v6.14.0 code. Since there’s no real change, I left the version number as-is. You’ll have to remove the current installed plugin and re-install it.
Thanks,
js.
The error is present at a different line now:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home4/incristo/public_html/oggi/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-facebook/lib/social.php on line 65
Oh great… http://us1.php.net/preg_replace_callback is supposed to be compatible with PHP 4.0.5+, but their example (using an anonymous function) is not! :-p
Hold on. 😉
js.
Well, two-for-two in the PHP 5.3+ code today. 😉 Thank you very much for letting me know so quickly! 🙂
Ok, hopefully that’ll be it. 😉 I’ve modified the preg_replace_callback() function to use a function, instead of including an anonymous function right in the arguments.
Would you mind removing that exiting plugin and re-installing it? I left the version number as-is.
Thanks,
js.
Ok. I confirm it is working again.
Thank you
Phew! Thank you very much — to you both — for reporting this so quickly. In the future I will definitely keep a lookout for PHP pre-5.3 compatibility when I use new functions / techniques. 😉 Hopefully we won’t see this kind of issue again…
Thank you, and again, apologies for any trouble this may have caused you.
js.
thanks man!
