 * Getting this when enabling the plugin:
 * “Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
 * “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /home/wp-content/plugins/sydney-
   toolbox/sydney-toolbox.php on line 103”
 * Isn’t a plugin conflict as I disabled everything and still got the error.
 * That leaves not running the latest version of wordpress as the only possible 
   solution.
 * Ideas?
