# Function split() is deprecated

 * I’ve installed the plugin and activated it fine. But when I try to attach a file
   and send it I get the thank you message and I also get a deprecated message…”
   function split() is deprecated…line 223″ and no files are actually in the dropbox
   account.
 * this is line 223:
 * $wpsallowedExtensions = split(“[ ]+”, $wpsdb_allow_ext);
 * I’m not sure what if anything needs to change or if it’s because I too have the
   same limitations as most that are with godaddy.
 * The plugin is great and I’m hoping I’ll be able to use it.

 * split should be replaced with either preg_split or the explode function. This
   should not affect the files reaching dropbox. Check to see if godaddy might be
   blocking the outgoing connection to dropbox. That is the most common error I 
   have been seeing. Also you could disable the deprecated error in php `error_reporting(
   E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);`
 * I will try to have an update out soon.

 * I am getting the same problem….. I have no clue where to make the fix I think
   you are suggesting. It is uploading fine with no problems I just don’t really
   like that front end users will see this error…..
