    Hi there, I’m unable to install Participants Database (also deleting is not possible). Maybe someone can assist?

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

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function error_log() in /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/PDb_Init.php:148 Stack trace: #0 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/PDb_Init.php(41): PDb_Init->_activate() #1 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/PDb_Init.php(78): PDb_Init->__construct() #2 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(310): PDb_Init::on_activate() #3 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(334): WP_Hook->apply_filters() #4 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-includes/plugin.php(517): WP_Hook->do_action() #5 /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-admin/plugins.php(194): do_action() #6 {main} thrown in /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/PDb_Init.php on line 148

    You need to ask your hosting provider about this, the error states that the function “error_log” is not defined, however, this is a standard php function. Your hosting provider may be using some kind of special configuration, so they would be able to address this problem.

    Hi Xnau, thanks for your quick reply. Enabling “error_log” solved the issue.

    By the way I received the following while activating the plugin (doesn’t seem to impact the functionality of the plugin at the moment):

    Deprecated: Automatic conversion of false to array is deprecated in /home/users/FOLDER/www/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/classes/PDb_Debug.php on line 402

    Thanks for the additional information, this is a php 8.2 thing, just a note to programmers that something is going to change in the future. I’ll write that up to be addressed.

    Has anyone confirmed it will run on 6.3.1?
    I am on PHP 7.4.33
