Unable to activate plugin: PHP error

5 mins later … solved when I remove the last comma on line 28.
I am on PHP 7.2.33 (Mamp Pro) fwiw.

Great spot. I think that’s the fasted from release to first bug report that I’ve come across ??

I’m running 7.4 myself and can’t recreate this myself but, you’re right, that comma shouldn’t be there. I’ll push out an update shortly to fix this.

Thank you.

np. Great idea indeed. I’ll submit some issues on your Github repo (if not already open).

Thank you – that would be fantastic. I already have some ideas on there for the next big release, so the more you can add, the better.

In case you’re wondering, this is because trailing commas in function calls are allowed since PHP 7.3, which is why it works in 7.4 but fatals in 7.2. Info: https://laravel-news.com/php-trailing-commas-functions

The PHPCompatibility library has saved me from this sort of thing a few times: https://github.com/PHPCompatibility/PHPCompatibility

:TIL:

Thanks John – will dig into that further.

I can actually drop my PHP version back too, so I’ll make sure I do that when testing in future.
