Apparently, it’s version 5.5.49- 0ubuntu0.14.04.1 * Plugin Contributor [responsivemenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/responsivemenu/) * (@responsivemenu) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553516) * Hi there, * Does this mean you were not able to install and activate the plugin and have it working correctly? * You mentioned Query Monitor, what is that exactly? I can’t imagine IF being an issue as as far as I’m aware its standard SQL. * Thread Starter [KTS915](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kts915/) * (@kts915) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553540) * The plugin seems to be working OK, though loading the admin pages (which is where the problem is manifesting) is very slow. * As for Query Monitor, your life as a developer is about to get a lot easier! It’s a plugin ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/)) made a former lead WP developer and it’s far more helpful than simply turning on debug. * Plugin Contributor [responsivemenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/responsivemenu/) * (@responsivemenu) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553543) * Hey Kts, * Love it! Thanks a lot for providing that link it certainly looks promising. * My only question is – why had I not heard about it before! * Thanks again! * Thread Starter [KTS915](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kts915/) * (@kts915) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553637) * I’ve now tried installing v.3.0.1 on a test site with my host (also running PHP7), and QM reports the same database error. So I don’t think it’s just something at my end. * Plugin Contributor [responsivemenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/responsivemenu/) * (@responsivemenu) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553638) * Hey there, * Nope don’t worry I’ve fixed it for the 3.0.2 release so when thats out all should be sorted. * Once it’s out if you could confirm that would be great (should be some time tonight). * All the best * Thread Starter [KTS915](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kts915/) * (@kts915) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-223/#post-7553639) * Oh, great, thanks!
