Error on Installation

[CrabFestGme]

I have tried to install and recieved this error.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /home1/msabc/public_html/wp-content/plugins/mstw-league-manager/includes/mstw-lm-update-records-class.php on line 637

Please let me know if there is a fix.

Hi CrabFestGme,
Thanks for posting the error message, it helps.

This issue has been reported several times, it just can be a bit hard to find because people like to jump on a random thread, and I let them. Anyway …

I believe there is a syntax issue with versions of PHP. WordPress recommends running PHP 5.6 (or greater) with the current version. (For the record, I’m running 5.5.24 on my dev server, and don’t have this problem.) So, first check your version of PHP and update if necessary.

Line 637 of mstw-lm-update-records-class.php looks like this in the current version:

$meta_data['games_played'] = each( $_POST )['value'];

It looks fine to me (and it works on my server!).

If PHP is up to date on your server, and your code looks like the above, please let me know.

Thanks.
-Mark
