    User is getting this error. I had to rename the plugin via ftp to get the site back up, http://autismva.it4causeshosting.org/

    Fatal error: Can’t use function return value in write context in /home4/it4causes/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbp-style-pack/includes/functions_unread.php on line 17

    ps if you don’t know, you can use this plugin to find out

    https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/display-php-version/

    it then shows in the dashboard ‘at a glance’ section

    you need to upgrade – 5.4 was end of life in 2015.

    from php

    If you are using these releases, you are strongly urged to upgrade to a current version, as using older versions may expose you to security vulnerabilities and bugs that have been fixed in more recent versions of PHP.

    Prior to PHP 5.5, empty() only supports variables; anything else will result in a parse error.

    which is the issue you are having.

    current supported versions are 5.6 for security releases and 7.x for full support.
