I'm not sure if that just with my host but hopefully someone will find that useful </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/clash-between-cron-job-and-gravity-forms#post-6338 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 18:35:25 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 6338@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, it's a common question.</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/frequently-asked-questions/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/frequently-asked-questions/</a></p> <p><a href="http://forum.gravityhelp.com/search.php?q=t_string" rel="nofollow">http://forum.gravityhelp.com/search.php?q=t_string</a></p> <p>This is usually due to your PHP version. Gravity Forms requires PHP 5 or higher to function properly. Make sure you're running PHP 5 on your installation. Many hosts still default to PHP 4 for some reason and you have to enable PHP 5 in your hosting admin panel. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/clash-between-cron-job-and-gravity-forms#post-6337 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 17:44:57 +0000 antonsamper 6337@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>hi there,</p> <p>I have a cron job setup on my server which was working on WordPress RC3 up until i installed Gravity Forms. The cron job pulls in the wp-blog-header.php file from my blog, the rest of the script is custom built. When the cron job runs now i get the following error:</p> <p>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /path/to/blog/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/gravityforms.php on line 46</p> <p>Has anyone come across this before? </p>
