    Howdy Team Kriesi!

    Yesterday I uploaded the new theme via FTP to a clients site. (I deleted the old theme first, but I still have a child theme installed) I’ve done this before with another licensed version of Enfold without issue, however this time I got a fatal error.

    Fatal error: Can’t use function return value in write context in /home2/scrawley/public_html/wp-content/themes/enfold/includes/helper-post-format.php on line 213

    I don’t know PHP, and I can no longer access the backend of this website. I can only access via FTP. Can you assist? (I have moved plugins to an “inactive” folder in case it was a plugin conflict, but that didn’t work.

    Thank you! – Ross (I can give you FTP credentials if you so desire, just let me know and thanks!)

    I just want to chime in and say I had the same error when I added the theme today.

    Hi,

    Sorry for the problems. They are caused because of old PHP versions. We would recommend to upgrade minimum to version 5.6 or higher (also for security) – http://php.net/supported-versions.php

    Please replace the file enfold\includes\helper-post-format.php with https://github.com/KriesiMedia/enfold-library/blob/master/temp_fixes/Enfold_4_5_4/helper-post-format.php.

    Do not forget to make a backup for fallback.

    Alternate you can replace line 213:

    
$hide_featured_image = empty( get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), '_avia_hide_featured_image', true ) ) ? false : true;

    with

    
$hide_featured_image = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_avia_hide_featured_image', true );
$hide_featured_image = empty( $hide_featured_image ) ? false : true;

    If you need assistance let us know and we can do it for you.

    Best regards,
    Günter

    Thank you, Günter! I will petition the host to upgrade the PHP and in the meantime, I will replace that file with your new one. I’ll let you know how it works out. Vielen Dank!

    Günter, this worked for me. I replaced all of the code in my helper-post-format.php document with your new code. Alles Güt! Danke!
