 * Just tried activating the plugin and got this fatal error message:
 * “Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/dnui-
   delete-not-used-image-wordpress/php/logic/dnuiL.php on line 83″
 * Any idea and what could be causing this?

 * Ahh I see, thanks for the response Nicearma. I can either wait for the fix or
   I can change the syntax myself, if you believe that would work?

 * Hi Nicearma, I have just uploaded v1.1.2 and this seems to work for me now. Unfortunately
   though, having looked at the results it seems that DNUI is referencing images
   that are used by Woocommerce and my theme as not used (as you mentioned in your
   blurb might happen).
 * Do you have any plans to make this plugin compatible with Woocommerce?

 * I will try to install and see what i can do about Woocommerce, i will tell you
   more if something is done

 * Ok, thanks Nicearma, the plugin would be perfect if it wasn’t for the other plugins
   that I have installed. Good work.
