Trouble with Ewww Image Optimizer WordPress Plugin
Published on October 7, 2016
Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
I upgraded this plugin on my site this evening and it caused a HTTP ERROR 500 so it was inaccessible. If you have this plugin installed, you might be wise to remove it and find another plugin for image compression.
Here is the response from site support:
"After investigation we found that the plugin Ewww image optimize update has caused issues for your website leading it not to function normally. We have disabled the plugin and your site works fine now.
We also checked logs and found an error relating to the plugin which is as follows;
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting :: (T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM)...
We suggest you to contact the plugin developer before activating the plugin on your site again."
