[Plugin: Easy Ads Lite] Broken

May I know what the error is? And also your PHP version, if you have it. Thanks.

I’ve no idea what version PHP I have but the error I’m getting is as follows:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or ‘(‘ in /content/Hosting/b/a/babogue.com/web/wp-content/plugins/easy-ads-lite/easy-ads.php on line 44

This plugin requires PHP5.3+. It actually checks for that version and is supposed to exit gracefully if the version is too old. Looks like the check doesn’t work for some versions of PHP! I will check it out and and push a fix.

Thanks for reporting it. Appreciate it.

If you are willing to run a test for me, could you edit the file validate.php in easy-ad-lite and change line 20 to:
$phpVersion = floatval(phpversion()) ;

And let me know if the activation gives a sensible message? Thanks.

I managed to check my PHP. I’ve 5.2 installed so hence why it won’t work.

I also updated line 10 in validate.php but I still got the same error when I tried to activate it. So, it’s not exiting gracefully ??

when I said line 10, I meant line 20.

Thanks for testing. I will find some other way of enforcing the version requirement.

I think this issue is now fixed. Please give it a go if you get a chance.
