 * Hi,
 * After I upgraded to WordPress 4.3.1 the plugin stopped working again. I get this
   error on the plugins page:
 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home1/lescribb/public_html/
   fottam/wp-content/plugins/thesography/exifography.php on line 113
 * I tried deactivating all other plugins but still get the same error.
 * Please help

 * Hi, can you tell me who your host is and what version of PHP they’re using?
 * Last time you reported this I was unable to replicate it. One other person reported
   it and after a lot of troubleshooting we decided it must be host specific because
   I could not duplicate.

 * Hi, My host is Bluehost and the PHP version being used is 5.4.24.
 * If it is host specific, let me know if I can ask them to change something to 
   rectify this.
 * Thanks!

 * Thanks. I’ll try to get access to a Bluehost site to test on.
