Let me know how it goes. Thanks! jajo on "Cannot Activate Plugin -- Parse Error" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cannot-activate-plugin-parse-error#post-715 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 18:01:56 +0000 jajo 715@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ If you could send us the fix for the current production version, that would be great (this is going on a client site, so would prefer something that is not a Beta). Thanks a ton.

We have fixed this in the 1.2 BETA release. You can either download this brand new 1.2 BETA release, or I can send you a fix for the 1.1.3 version if you would like. It's your call. Here is the details on the 1.2 BETA release: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/gravity-forms-v1-2-beta-now-available/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/gravity-forms-v1-2-beta-now-available/</a> You can download it from the Downloads page if you want to go that route. Or I can send you a fix for the 1.1.3 version as I mentioned above. jajo on "Cannot Activate Plugin -- Parse Error" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cannot-activate-plugin-parse-error#post-712 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 17:36:52 +0000 jajo 712@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I cannot activate the Gravity Forms plugin -- getting the following error: <code>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PUBLIC in [path]/gravityforms.php on line 2270</code> The failed line of code: <code>public static function lead_detail_grid($form, $lead){</code> I am indeed running MySQL 5, PHP5+, WP 2.8+ (though, of note, I tried to install the Requirements Checker plugin, and it would never actually show up in my plugin list... no idea, lol). This is running on a Mac OSX server. I haven't had any problems with any other plugins, before. Perhaps there is simply a php setting that needs enabled? (I'm somewhat unfamiliar with PHP -- 10 years experience in web dev otherwise, though) Thanks for the assistance! Edit: Also, I tried disabling all other plugins, to no avail.
