Fatal error: Cannot redeclare scb_init()

[cyberhobo]

Observed when running with wp-pagenavi:

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare scb_init() (previously declared in /nas/content/live/hopmeldev/wp-content/plugins/wp-pagenavi/scb/load.php:101) in /nas/content/live/hopmeldev/wp-content/plugins/postmatic/vendor/scribu/scb-framework/load-composer.php on line 12

@Vernal in the case of wp-pagenavi, it appears that activating Replyable before PageNavi is a workaround in that particular case.

Thanks boss.

I'm experiencing the same issue using a plugin that makes use of the posts-to-posts plugin. I noted that in the ticket reported here: scribu/wp-scb-framework#50

My error is:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare scb_init() (previously declared in /var/www/usworker/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/anp-meetings/libs/posts-to-posts/vendor/scribu/scb-framework/load.php:101) in /var/www/usworker/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/postmatic/vendor/scribu/scb-framework/load-composer.php on line 12

@misfist did you try deactivating both plugins, then activating replyable before posts-to-posts?

[cyberhobo]

@misfist As an experiment I forked wp-scb-framework and tried having Composer use the standard loader. Give the following build a try if you like:
postmatic-2.1.3.zip

@cyberhobo - Thanks for this! I'll check it out and report back.

@cyberhobo that zip file shared works, the fatal error prevent activation. Thanks!

[cyberhobo]

Thanks @danaskallman - I actually forgot to close this issue, the "loading voodoo" should be included in the current releases also, please let me know if they do not.

[danaskallman]

@cyberhobo I just tried version 2.2.1 and I am getting the fatal error. posts-to-posts in installed as it's own plugin in the instance I would use this alongside it.

[cyberhobo]

Thanks for letting me know - I'll reopen this and target our next release. Meanwhile it should be okay to use the zip that works.

[danaskallman]

Sounds good, I'll follow updates. Thanks!

just to add, other plugins such as BadgeOS also affected by this issue.
Also note the large number of \vendor directories included contributes to making this one of the largest wordpress plugins ..
