Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

  • I just switched themes and I’m getting this error on every plugin I try to active (no additional details – error reporting is on full – I tried checking /var/log/php.log but it hasn’t been updated since Oct 2013)

    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

    Also happens on new plugins I install & try to activate.

    Going to update to 3.9 to see if that fixes anyway.

    Any help appreciated

  • Hi craven223

    You have error in the frontend

    Primary MenuSKIP TO CONTENT
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_nav_menu() in /var/www/ablemagazine.co.uk/wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen/header.php on line 54

    Upload again WordPress. wp_nav_menu() is a WordPress function.

    Kind regards

    Going to poke my head in here a last time before I respectfully bow out and call it a night. (Thanks Jan! :))

    Don’t know if everyone else is seeing it, but on my browser, in the sidebar section above and below the Latest Disability News widget, all I see is a bunch of shortcodes of the [adrotate] variety.

    I’m assuming I am supposed to see something else – perhaps ads generated by a plugin? – and since I’m not, maybe that’s related to the issue at hand?

    Hey EMG,

    Yeah I had to add add_filter(‘widget_text’, ‘do_shortcode’); into functions.php to give widgets the ability to pull in that code.

    — AWESOME.

    Hooray indeed! ??
