 * Hi,
    After installing the plugin for my site and activating it, I set one of 
   the pages to Members Only and gave access to Administrator (me). When I try to
   access the page, I receive the following error:
 * Fatal error: Undefined class name ‘self’ in /nfs/home/f/fireflysigns.com/public_html/
   sandbox/dealers/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-access-control/wordpress-access-
   control.php on line 254
 * When I try to access the Pages section in the control panel, I receive the same
   error. The only way I can access my Pages again is to deactivate the plugin… 
   Please advice…
 * Thank you,
    Amy

 * BTW, I’m using PHP 4…
 * And I found a fix for the problem…
 * I changed the code
    `! self::check_conditions( $post->ID )` to `! WordPressAccessControl::
   check_conditions( $post->ID )`
 * By referring the class “WordPressAccessControl” specific by name (instead of 
   using “self”) solved the problem.
 * And [here](http://bytes.com/topic/php/answers/448188-php-4-compatible-switchover-help-needed)
   is where I found my solution.
