The site is probably running PHP 4. You need to change the site settings to use PHP 5.</p> <p>With GoDaddy when you activate PHP 5 in the control panel it may take some time for it to actually update on the server. It isn't instant... unlike every other host out there. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/pasre-error-on-activation#post-19831 Thu, 03 Mar 2011 13:24:58 +0000 Staats 19831@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This is isolated to a client's site/server. I'm sure because I role this plugin everyday. But here is the issue:</p> <p>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/content/j/a/r/jaredfries/html/pandora/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/gravityforms.php on line 59</p> <p>And it's hosted your favorite Provider (sarcasm): GoDaddy</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> Rich </p>
