Hi,

I updated my Anspress/Anspress tag plugin to find the entire wordpress crash.

Then, disabled all plugins and tried to activate Anspress. Failed with error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[’ in /home/bodhisut/public_html/wp-content/plugins/anspress-question-answer/anspress-question-answer.php on line 580

(This is with 0 plugin, so no other plugin is interfering)

Havent been able to get Anspress to activate ever since. Worse, all QA URLs are giving 404 (obviously).

Pls help.

Ok, it was a PHP version issue. Upgraded from PHP 5.3 to 5.6. It worked.

Thanks for the awesome plugin.

I have installed PHP version 3.5.29, need to upgrade to more current version?

There is no PHP 3.5 version.
