    Hi there,

    Tried updating to Connections Ver 0.7.6.5. but got an error…

    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a Fatal Error.
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<<‘ (T_SL), expecting ‘)’ in /htdocs/wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/class.settings.php on line 417

    Help required please.

    Regards,

    Ray

    And the update crashed my entire site. I had to go in the back end and delete the entire connection folder on the server to get the site back. What happended?

    Same here – Error on line 417 in class.settings.php. Had to manually (-ftp) deactivate connections in order to keep my page running

    I did not delete the entire folder. Could anyone provide a walkaround or a bug-free version of class.settings.php?

    Hi again,

    someone posted a solution in the wordpress.org support – forum which worked just fine for me

    download class.settings.php via ftp (wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/class.settings.php)

    delete following entries (the number on the left represents the line)

    417. <<<<<<< HEAD
    422. =======
    425. >>>>>>> fxbenard-develop

    Tassos explanation: “I think it has something to do with the <<< in that some servers accept only two , some three and so on.”

    You can find the solution here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/0765-will-not-activate

    Apologies for the trouble. Somehow a merge conflict had occurred without warning.

    You can follow the advise above or just delete Connections and re-install it. It is safe to do, you will not lose anything.
