PHP Fatal Error
-
I’m using Photonic to display a flickr album on my website. It works really well. However, in my server’s error file Photonic is producing fatal errors, like this:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Undefined constant “Photonic_Plugin\Platforms\PHOTONIC_PATH” in /var/www/lyridsfolkdancefestival.org/public_html/wp-content/plugins/photonic/Platforms/Base.php:9\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/lyridsfolkdancefestival.org/public_html/wp-content/plugins/photonic/Platforms/OAuth1.php(8): require_once()\n#1 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/lyridsfolkdancefestival.org/public_html/wp-content/plugins/photonic/Platforms/Base.php on line 9
Is there something I’m doing wrong? Or…
I have the gallery showing up here: https://lyridsfolkdancefestival.org/photos/ which seems to work just fine!

I checked the code after changing my PHP version to 8.2, but it doesn’t seem to be triggering this error. Are you getting this all the time, or did it just occur once and then stop?
If you are seeing this error happen a few times but your site is running absolutely fine, this could be due to a different reason: typically, you would see such errors if someone was directly trying to load the file (generally hackers try to load PHP files directly to try and exploit issues). If a hacker tries to directly load the file, they would get an error (which is a good thing), since this file is not supposed to be loaded directly – rather, it is called by internal files that define
PHOTONIC_PATHbefore the file is accessed.As long as your site is working fine, you can ignore these errors, since these are not caused by bad plugin code.
