 * I’ve done this a few times still to no avail, looks like it was my webserver 
   not enabling php short tags, for example:
 * `<?`
 * instead of
 * `<?php`
 * so just did a quick find / replace and it works, suggest you update to reflect(
   even though it won’t be too common…)

 * Apologies for that – I thought I nabbed all of the short tags last update. Thanks
   for catching that. The latest update should correct this. Thanks again.
