# Plugin crashes WP when activated

 * Hey I tried installing Automator WP today.
 * WP version: 5.7.1
    aWP version: 1.5.1
 * Fresh WP install and no other plugins running.
 * As soon as I try to activate the plugin my system crashes and locks me out. I
   have to delete the plugin via FTP to regain access to my system.
 * Any ideas? I note 1.5.1 was only released a few hours back, so perhaps there’s
   an issue there?
 * Thanks,
 * Chris
 * Edit: Here’s the error:
 * `Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_plugin_active() in/

   WP version 5.7.1. Completely crashed the site.

 * Hi [@ccdw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ccdw/) and [@theonlypat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theonlypat/)
 * Thank you so much for report this issue
 * We just released the update 1.5.2 fixing it
 * Note: This new version of AutomatorWP now includes all free integrations inside,
   so you will not need to install the integrations one by one!
 * Best regards!
