Check with your web host and make sure you have PHP5 enabled. yourdivinebiz on "Can't Activate Plugin - Getting a Parse Error Message" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cant-activate-plugin-getting-a-parse-error-message#post-20428 Fri, 11 Mar 2011 13:33:06 +0000 yourdivinebiz 20428@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I am using the Genesis Theme with the Lifestyle plugin and trying to activate the Gravity Forms plugin, but keep getting the following message: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/content/t/b/l/tblcllc/html/shannvanderleek/home/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/gravityforms.php on line 59" It let me install it, but I can't activate it. I have a developer's license and have installed this many times using this parent/child theme, never running into any problems. I would totally appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction to fix the issue. Thanks, Kim
