EWWW Image Optimizer Parse Error expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM v3.0.0 Fix

  • Like others also got the error with version 3.0.0 update:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/******/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/common.php on line 1764

    Now that’s a wacky error ??

    Had a look at the relevant code and think modifying the file

    /ewww-image-optimizer/common.php

    As follows gets rid of the parse error.

    Change lines 1764, 1772, 1781, 1799 and 1813,

    From

    if ( ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) || empty( DOING_AJAX ) ) {

    To

    if ( !defined('DOING_AJAX') || ! DOING_AJAX ) {

    Not sure if it has any impact on functionality, just quickly getting a fix. I’ve only tested this on localhost so far, putting the info out there quickly for others.
