Latest version of the plugin causes fatal errors

    Hi there — just a heads up that on WP installs whose wp-content directories have been moved or renamed to anything other than wp-content, this plugin currently causes fatal errors when users attempt to access the WP admin interface.

    Example (full paths edited for brevity):

    require_once(): Failed opening required '[...]/wp-content/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/class-getting-start-plugin-helper.php' (include_path='.:') in [...]/assets/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/getting-started.php on line 9

    I’d recommend using the plugin_dir_path() function instead of ABSPATH . 'wp-content/plugins', since that will reflect the WP_CONTENT_DIR constant if it has been defined in wp-config.php.

    (If anyone else has this problem, you can work around it by making wp-content a symlink to your actual, renamed wp-content directory.)

    Hi @kenjigarland,

    Try to delete the plugin and re-install once.

    Hope that will fix.

    If not, let me know, I will look into this.

    Thanks

    Hi @farazfrank — that was the first thing I tried, because at first glance, it looked like the error message was saying that the class-getting-start-plugin-helper.php file was simply missing. But the plugin is actually looking for that file in the wrong place (wp-content/ instead of assets/, which is where this particular WordPress site is configured to store plugin files).

    Thanks!

    Thanks for your valuable feedback.

    Is the error still exist or It was the only first time?

    I can confirm the same issue on an additional site: 

    Warning: require_once(/wordpress/core/5.6.1/wp-content/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/class-getting-start-plugin-helper.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /srv/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/getting-started.php on line 9

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/wordpress/core/5.6.1/wp-content/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/class-getting-start-plugin-helper.php' (include_path='/:.') in /srv/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/flickr-album-gallery/plugin-notice/admin/getting-started.php on line 9

    Installing, reinstalling didn’t work. This is the first time I’ve seen this error with your plugin on the site and it still exists upon reinstall!
