Me too.
I’m running 3.5.1 with multisite and Buddy Press. I’ll test with a previous version and feedback.
[edit] Should have said it breaks admin pages only.
I added this:
require_once(ABSPATH . "wp-admin/includes/screen.php");
to the top of wp-content/plugins/media-category-library/classes/media-category-library.php as per http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/fatal-error-when-going-to-wp-admin?replies=5
This brings the website admin back.
This solved the same issue for me. @c3iq, thanks for posting the fix.
The new version (1.9) addresses this issue. It was a problem with WP 3.5.1 and before, I believe.
Just installed version 1.9, and it (re-)caused the fatal error, which I had previously fixed in the earlier version by inserting the “require_once” command as noted above.
Fortunately the fix of adding “require_once” still fixes the re-caused problem in version 1.9.
The function ‘get_current_screen()’ doesn’t exist from the very start when the plugin is initialized. That’s why it’s good practice to check whether or not the function exists before using it.
function_exists()
Hi Stefan,
I had done that for one function call, but I missed the other function call later in the code. I do this for both function calls:
if ( ! function_exists( ‘get_current_screen’ ) ) return;
Would you mind trying again to make sure the new version fixes this for you. Also, what version of WP are you running?
Thanks,
Tim
