    This installation is not on the live site. I cloned the website on a development location FYI.
    Anyways, I upgraded the plugin to the latest version 8.2.8 (from Version Version 0.7.9.3) and I am receiving the following error.

    Undefined variable: vCard in /var/www/path/to/files/wp-content/connections_templates/rdp/template.php on line 3 Fatal error: Call to a member function download() on a non-object in /var/www/path/to/files/wp-content/connections_templates/rdp/template.php on line 3

    I inherited this website, so I am not sure if this is a modification by a previous developer or not but, the ‘connection_images’ and ‘connections_templates’ folders are located in the ‘wp-content’ folder.

    Uncommenting this line within the template.php file allows the plugin to run correctly except for the vCard.

    The vCard class does not appear to be instantiated.

    debug_backtrace reveals the template is being called from template.class.php

    Sample of the code calling the class:

    echo $vCard->download($atts = array( 'anchorText' => 'vCard'));

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank You

    I forced the class to instantiate vCard just before the template as a test and this appears to work.
    ( this is of course a hack and is un desirable ).

    I will work my way back and see why it is not instantiating correctly and report what I find.

    I doubt anyone else will need this help as the version this website was using was so old…but you never know.

    @ Jeremy

    That function was deprecated some time ago and remove a year or so afterward. You should use this in the template instead:

    $entry->vcard( array( 'before' => '<span>', 'after' => '</span>' ) );

    Hope that helps!
