Hi Darian,

Thanks for the feedback. I had run the events upgrade multiple times on local test/staging servers, but it always stops in the preview scan with no errors and about 24 events left to scan. Assuming this might be the issue based on your comments and other threads, I deleted hundreds of old drafted events (we had nearly 3,000 events), emptied the trash, and finally got the preview to complete. This identified 50+ events that failed to migrate, so I deleted those and emptied the trash. This time the preview completed, and then I was able to complete the migration. I will test this on our public staging server environment that matches the live site environment more closely and see if it works on there.

Yes, the plugin version 4.3.0-1 works as expected after cleanup.

The fatal error occurred in the admin dashboard immediately after clicking Network Activate, after installing the plugin via the zip file upload, on the multisite installation that had 4.2.0 installed but deactivated at the time.

I also just tested the plugin on a public staging environment running WordPress 6.0.1 and PHP 7.4 that did not previously have any version installed. This fresh install is also working as expected.

You are correct about the rest_enabled filter: something else changed in my environment that I did not catch.

Thanks for the explanation about the multisite features.

I previously installed the Font Awesome 4.2.0 plugin on a multisite (subdirectory) installation with compatibility mode enabled and it actually worked properly. There were no errors reported, it successfully found the conflict with “Advanced Custom Fields: Font Awesome” plugin, and FA version 4 shims were loaded. Since I simply needed the default settings, I did not need to update any settings on each site. My icons continued to work correctly on the front-end and backend ACF fields.

When I installed the Font Awesome 4.3.0-1 plugin, I received the fatal error message. After I installed and ran the font-awesome-cleanup.zip, I was able to install and run 4.3.0-1 without any errors. Again, the plugin conflicts and icons are all working properly. It did seem to find two additional conflicts (a link and a script). However, I do not see any differences in the functionality of 4.3.0-1: there is no Network Admin Dashboard management page, so the settings must still be configured on each site.

I see one PHP error:
PHP Deprecated: rest_enabled is deprecated since version 4.7.0! Use rest_authentication_errors instead. The REST API can no longer be completely disabled, the rest_authentication_errors filter can be used to restrict access to the API, instead. in C:\laragon\www\hbu\wp-includes\functions.php on line 5586

WP 5.8.4
PHP 7.4.29

Let me know if I can provide additional information.
