I'll close this - it was actually a conflict with another plugin using Freemius API - needed to check class

[alanef]

I will re open - as it is an incompatibility betweem php-sdk and wordpress-sdk

The Freemius_Api_Base differs between SDks as in php-sdk it has a method Test but in wordpress-sdk the base classes doesnt not have a method Test - but the class Freemius_Api_WordPres extends Freemius_Api_Base with a static method Test

Ideally Freemius_Api_Base should be the same in both libraries and the Test extended in a simplar way.

I just encountered this too

[juanobrach]

Same here!

[sushmak02]

I am facing the same issue! Is there any fix available for this?

[mnelson4]

My workaround was to edit the code in the Freemius PHP SDK so it was namespaced

[mnelson4]

And actually, I didn’t do those changes myself. Leo from Freemius did it and sent me the modified copy. If you ask Freemius support they can send you that copy (or maybe they’ll see this is a more general issue that merits fixing more permanently.)

[alanef]

A better solution to name space - perhaps if should just be updated in the library here?

[polevaultweb]

Just encountered this too

[alanef]

Yes this library is unsafe to use in a wordpress site, plugin or theme - should use the WordPress SDK instead.

I only use this library on non WordPress apps where I want to access freemius data

[selimmw]

Same problem, Any solution?

[alanef]

The solution is not to use this library in WordPress use this https://github.com/Freemius/wordpress-sdk instead

[selimmw]

Hi @alanef Just tested the same result, what should I do now?

[alanef]

I don't understand what you mean. If you are not using the library in WP then you can't get the message. Have you gone through the normal steps of debugging / searching? In any case a mentioned don't use the library in WP, which means don't use any plugin or theme that incorrectly loads the library.
