 * Hello,
 * I’m evaluating yourchannel plugin. Videos load normally on the front-end, following
   error comes up in admin area:
 * > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘var’ (T_VAR), expecting ‘;’ in /#####/
   > wordpress/wp-content/plugins/yourchannel/templates/templates.php on line 253
 * This is on a shared hosting environment, a fresh wordpress install, it loads 
   normally on localhost.

 * Hi, your web host is using very old PHP version. Ask them to turn **asp_tags 
   off** in **php.ini** file. In newer versions, it’s turned off by default.
 * YourChannel uses a templating engine which causes conflicts and error when asp_tags
   is turned on.
