    Hi @succinctideas,

    Thanks for notifying us of the issue. I think this might be a version compatibility problem with PHP. Do you know what version of PHP you are running?

    As a temporary fix you could try replacing lines 5 and 6 in post-to-google-my-business/mbp-api.php:

    const CACHE_DURATION = 60*60*24;
const ERROR_DURATION = 60*60*24;

    with the following: 

    const CACHE_DURATION = 86400;
const ERROR_DURATION = 86400;

    I will add this fix to the next version, which should be rolled out in the next few days.

    I had the same problem but with your fix everything was all right
    I’ve got PHP ver. 5.4 for https://www.giannip.com/

    I have just pushed version 1.1.1 of the plugin to the repository to fix this issue. If you are experiencing any problems, update the plugin through the WordPress admin panel or download the latest version from here.

    Thanks a lot, everything is allright.

    Good, I’m assuming I can mark this as resolved then.
