  • Hi Gents,

    I saw the same thing, but I went ahead and took a look at the error log..

    [25-Jun-2017 21:05:21 UTC] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /home/blah/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-embed-facebook/lib/class-wp-embed-fb-plugin.php on line 20

    Line 20 actually looks like this:
    static $link_types = [ ‘href’, ‘uri’ ];

    So I’m not seeing the problem.

    Suggestions? The error took down the whole site. I went in and moved the the facebook embed plugin directory for the time being.

    Thanks!

    It has something to do with php versions I reverted all arrays to the old form, from from [] to array() this syntax was introduced on PHP 5.4 current recomended php version to use with WordPress is 7.0.

    I recommend you move to a better hosting, in the mean time I uploaded a new version with the old syntax.

    I just wanted to give “two thumbs up” and a BIG “Thank You” to Miquel (the author of this plugin) for getting my website back up online after it crashed yesterday morning.

    Miquel was prompt in answering my ‘support ticket’ and got me back up and running within minutes of MY seeing and answering his email message.

    Thank you so much again, Miquel, for your prompt help and awesome customer service! I truly appreciate it very much!!!
