No activiation possible because of fatal error

  • Could not activate plugin version 1.01 on WP 4.8.1 because of fatal error during plugin activation. Other user had the same problem (see support forum). The advice of the developer to update to the latest WP version was not helpful because at the time of the error i was on the latest version as i wrote in my question.

    Sorry for the problem. I think that I fixed it with version 1.03, just uploaded.

    You may need to uninstall and delete the plugin, then reinstall and activate.

    I that on my testing site (uninstall/delete), verifying the plugin’s folder was gone, then reinstalled/activated without errors.

    If you still have the fatal error during activation, please ensure that the plugin folder is deleted on your host before reinstalling. Let me know of success/failure.

    Thanks..again, sorry for the problem.

    Evidently, version 1.03 was not a fix.

    Version 1.10 is now available. Requires WP 4.6+ and PHP 5.3+; will automatically deactivate if those conditions not met.

    Also, removed the code using the deprecated function wp_get_sites; not allowed version 4.6+. Since 4.6+ is now required (and tested for), that fatal error should not occur.

    I have tested the new version on my test site, from a ‘first install/activation’ mode. My testing shows all is well.

    Let me know of any success/failures. Sorry for the issues.

    New features coming soon to allow sites to be shown, and other options.

    This problem should be resolved with the 1.10 release (or later).

    Please let me know if the new version worked for you.Thanks.
