The problem wouldn’t be there if you can update your PHP version which I would recommend. Otherwise, you can change the anonymous function that handles the shortcode. * Plugin Author [andreyonadam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andreyonadam/) * (@andreyonadam) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-installation-error-11/#post-5715919) * I have updated the plugin so it now works with older versions of PHP. Update the plugin and you should no longer have this problem. * Thread Starter [ReinoudYkema](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reinoudykema/) * (@reinoudykema) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-installation-error-11/#post-5715934) * Lovely, thanks it’s looking great now. * Thread Starter [ReinoudYkema](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reinoudykema/) * (@reinoudykema) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-installation-error-11/#post-5715935) * I have asked my ISP for a php upgrade.
