 * Hi,
 * We’re running wp 4.3 and get the following error when installing the plugin “
   class wasn’t loaded because it doesn’t implement the get_label method.”. Is this
   known or something a little more obscure?
 * thanks

 * Hi wpuser007007,
 * This would indicate that you’ve got a plugin which implements custom connectors
   for Stream, which now need to be updated to work with Stream 3.
 * Happy to help with this process, if you can tell me which plugin is responsible.

 * I have the same issue.. It actually crashed a bunch of my sites. Plug in that
   it works with is wp-main child reports

 * Same problems – “class wasn’t loaded because it doesn’t implement the get_label
   method.” shows up as soon as I activate Stream. And it crashed a few of my sites
   when they upgraded to WP 4.3.
 * The cause is definitely the Stream plugin. When I logged into my server through
   FTP and delete the Stream plugin folder, the crashed site reappears. I could 
   log into the WP admin and reinstall the Stream plugin, but then the error message
   appears.
 * Stream still looks like it’s working, but the message indicates that it’s not
   using the newest hook.

 * Same situation here.
 * Crashed a client’s site and error log reported issues regarding the stream plugin.“
   class wasn’t loaded because it doesn’t implement the get_label method.”
 * Disabled the stream plugin and site was running back again.
 * Any further update on how to avoid/resolve this issue will be really helpful.
 * We had wp-main child reports plugin on the site, if that helps.
 * Thanks & Regards

 * [@quietcity](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quietcity/) The get_label method
   is a method implemented by Stream 2. It’s implemented slightly differently in
   Stream 3.
 * What’s happening here is another plugin (from what I can tell the plugin is wp-
   main child reports, or other wp-main plugins) has implemented some methods which
   don’t work with Stream 3 (they were built for Stream 2).
 * I can’t find wp-main child reports anywhere – could anyone link me to where you
   got it? I’d like to reach out to the developer. If you could contact their support
   too, that could help.
 * (unless it’s MainWP, in which case, I’ve already reached out)

 * Thanks for the info Luke.
 * Yes, MainWP has an extension that relies on Stream to populate the client reports.
   They advised that users NOT upgrade to Stream v2 because of the cloud-based data,
   but now that Stream v3 is back on the local database, MainWP has recommended 
   the update. But, there is obviously a bug to work out. In the meantime, I’ve 
   reverted all installations of Stream back to 1.4.9.
 * Please keep us advised of any updates.

 * I’ve looked into this, and discovered that it’s a problem on the MainWP end. 
   I’ve already fixed the problem for them and sent them the fix. Just waiting for
   them to include it and release an update.
