    Had an update notification. I updated and went to continue working on blog posts. When I hit preview a blog post it gave me this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_plugin_active() in [removed]/wp-content/plugins/simple-facebook-og-image/simple-facebook-ogimage.php on line 74

    Deactivated the plugin to resume working. Any insight appreciated.

  • Adding include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' ); resolved it for me.

    Before (line 74):

    // Support for Embedly
    if( empty($og_image) && is_plugin_active(’embedly/embedly.php’) ) {

    After:

    include_once( ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/plugin.php’ );

    // Support for Embedly
    if( empty($og_image) && is_plugin_active(’embedly/embedly.php’) ) {

    Hi,

    I’m not sure why you get this error. Can you tell me the name of the theme you have installed and also the WordPress version? The error you see is because a function I use cannot be found BUT this function is part of the core WordPress plugins so it should be available everywhere.

    Regards

    Hi antubis,

    I’m using WordPress 4.6.1 and the theme is Magazine by Themify.me

    Thank you

    We are having the same problem. Running WP 4.6.1 and the Divi theme.

    Hi,

    The plugin is updated and the issue is fixed. Apologies for anyone affected by it. You can update the plugin to version 1.3.1

    Regards
