Try decativating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.
If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Default theme (WordPress 2.9) or the Twenty Ten theme (WordPress 3.0) to rule-out a theme-specific issue.
No plugins are active… * All (4) | * Inactive (4)
Current theme is default: Twenty Ten 1.1 by the WordPress team
This happened immediately once I tried to activate either one of the two plugins.
Ok, can you show us the lines it says is the error?
I substituted —- for specific site info…
Google Calendar Events
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/——-/public_html/——-/wp-content/plugins/google-calendar-events/inc/gce-parser.php on line 136
Banner Rotator FX
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/——-/public_html/——-/wp-content/plugins/banner-rotator-fx/banner-rotator-fx.php on line 35
I should also say that I have initially uploaded from within WP, but the later deleted them several times and FTP’d them up manually. I have also tried a previous version of one of them and not successful there either.
What does gce-parser.php on line 136
and
banner-rotator-fx.php on line 35
say?
gce-parser.php on line 136
Lines 132 – 140
//Create markup for display
$events_markup = ‘<div class=”gce-event-info”>’;
//If title option has been set for display, add it Below: this is rubbish, unsure of better alternative
if(isset($this->title)) $events_markup .= ‘<p class=”gce-tooltip-title”>’ . $this->title . ‘ ‘ . date_i18n($event_day[0]->get_feed()->get_date_format(), $key) . ‘</p>’;
$events_markup .= ‘
foreach($event_day as $event){
banner-rotator-fx.php on line 35
This may be attributed to my installation methods and I will try this one again…
Same here: Tried to install “portfolio theme” on a freshWP 3.0.l with no plug ins installed. Cannot activate this theme because of this. Have to remove it via ftp.
I have the same problem using the Theme P2.
