 * Hello again,
 * After fixing the previous bug I’ve got this new message.

   in D:\HTDocs\www_domain_com\wp-content\plugins\wp-bannerize-pro\plugin\Providers\
   WPBannerizeServiceProvider.php on line 46
 * Notice I was migrating banners from the old plugin.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * please, check your PHP version because the double “(” is not an error.
    WordPress
   requires 5.6+ or 7.0 PHP version.
 * Let me know if you will fix.
 * Best
