 * I’ve been trying to install the Code Snippets plugin but everytime I install 
   and activate the plugin it crashes my site and creates this error: ParseError
   thrown syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting ‘)’
    If I delete Code Snippets
   through cPanel everything works again. Do you know if there is something else,
   such as another plugin that Code Snippets conflicts with?

 * This is likely due to malformed code in an existing snippet. Try enabling safe
   mode before activating the plugin and seeing whether that clears things up: [https://help.codesnippets.pro/article/12-safe-mode](https://help.codesnippets.pro/article/12-safe-mode)
