Hi guys,

Upgraded from 5.7.1 to 5.7.3 on my site, got these PHP errors:

223 PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_doing_ajax() in /nas/content/live/instance/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/sp-startup/site/sp-site-support-functions.php on line 179


3 PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_doing_ajax() in /nas/content/live/instance/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/sp-startup/sp-load-core-admin.php on line 29

Not ready to move to WP 4.7 quite yet.  Saw the other thread that said to upgrade, but that’s not an option for me.  4.6 is hardly out of date (patched to latest security update).

What’s going on here?  That function is only available in 4.7 AFAICT.

-Dave

5.7.2 does indeed need WP 4.7. It would have stated that on the update page. Sadly, WP does not support dependency in their upgrade processing so all we can do is display the message that it is required.
