 * Hello!
 * I just installed this plugin to my completely new wordpress site.
 * When I click on any menu:
    News & Info General Settings Users Levels Register
   Pages Troubleshooting
 * I get every time a blank page.

 * Hello Jaycee,
    Where is your WordPress install hosted? (GoDaddy, Host Gator, 
   etc) Do you have any other plugins installed? (If so which ones?) Which version
   of WordPress are you using? (I’m assuming 3.2.1) What is the url/address of one
   of the pages you are trying to open? (i.e. [http://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=free-wp-membership%2Ffree-wp-membership.php&wp-membership_tab=NewsInfo](http://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=free-wp-membership%2Ffree-wp-membership.php&wp-membership_tab=NewsInfo))
 * Version 1.1.6.1 has been successfully installed in WordPress versions: 2.6.1,
   2.6.5, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.1.3, 3.2 and 3.2.1 on a LAMP server.
 * My suspicion is that you are experiencing a compatibility issue. However, to 
   solve it I will need more information about your specific setup.

 * Hello Jaycee,
    You should try updating to 1.1.7 as some of the code around the
   loading of the menus was refactored.

 * Hi Ben!
 * First, sorry for the late reply, I was away.
 * I have 2 sites. One of them is on Dreamhost.com and the other one is on Bluehost.
   com
 * I just installed the latest version:
 * – on my site which is on Dreamhost: Fatal error: Call to a member function DisplayTab()
   on a non-object in /home/xxxxx/zzzzz/wp-content/plugins/free-wp-membership/free-
   wp-membership.php on line 1298
    it’s after activation of plugin.
 * – Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Fatal error: Class ‘wp_membership_plugin’ not found in /home8/xxxxx/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/free-wp-membership/free-wp-membership.php on line 1377
 * Here I can not able to activate the plugin because then i get this error.
 * Maintenance mode is active on my both site at the moment…………

 * Fatal error: Class ‘wp_membership_plugin’ not found in /home8/xxxxx/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/free-wp-membership/free-wp-membership.php on line 1377 This
   error message is on my second site on Bluehost.com

 * Hi Jaycee,
 * > Fatal error: Class ‘wp_membership_plugin’ not found in /home8/xxxxx/public_html/
   > wp-content/plugins/free-wp-membership/free-wp-membership.php on line 1377
 * That error indicates that one of the minimum requirements was not met. What concerns
   me is that it should have been accompanied with a red admin alert banner indicating
   which requirement check failed. I’ve added an “issue” to improve requirement 
   checking/reporting in 1.1.8 which may help identify the cause of your troubles.
 * Another point of concern is:
 * > Fatal error: Call to a member function DisplayTab() on a non-object in /home/
   > xxxxx/zzzzz/wp-content/plugins/free-wp-membership/free-wp-membership.php on
   > line 1298
 * This error should not be possible if you are failing a requirements check.
 * At this point I need more information about the php setup on that server to really
   solve this issue. Can you run the following script on your server?
    `<?php phpinfo();?
   >` You can email the contents to ben.ward at gmail.com. If you are not comfortable
   with that, we can wait and try 1.1.8 and see if we can get a better error message.
 * Thanks,
    Ben Ward

 * Hi Jaycee,
    Sounds good. With luck it’ll be ready sometime next weekend. You 
   can track the progress on: [the home page](http://free-wp-membership.foransrealm.com/Issues.html)
   and/or [my blog](http://blog.foransrealm.com/category/free-wp-membership/). Thanks,

 * Hi Jaycee,
    1.1.8 has been released Hopefully the improved requirements checking
   will shed some light on what is causing the issue. Let me know how it works for
   you. Ben Ward
