Fatal error: Cannot redeclare tweakjp_sd_shortcode

[dtrounce]

New install of Fusion 2.1 on WordPress 4.6 with Jetpack 4.2.2

Activating theme gives the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare tweakjp_sd_shortcode() (previously declared in /wp/wp-content/plugins/jetpack-sharing-butttons-shortcode/jp-sd-shortcode.php:14) in /wp/wp-content/themes/fusion/framework/shortcodes/social-shortcodes.php on line 167

WP admin site gives the same error and is unusable.

Temporary workaround is to use a file editor to comment out the function tweakjp_sd_shortcode() in /wp/wp-content/plugins/jetpack-sharing-butttons-shortcode/jp-sd-shortcode.php

But the theme should not conflict with Jetpack, and result in an unusable WP admin site.

Ok, so it’s a conflict with the plug-in “Sharing buttons shortcode for Jetpack”, not Jetpack itself.

But if you have that plug-in installed before installing the theme, you get this error. Maybe a warning to remove it before installing?

I have added a check in social-shortcodes.php file to ensure we don’t redeclare this method if it has already been defined. Will include the same in the next update. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

if (!function_exists('tweakjp_sd_shortcode')) {
    function tweakjp_sd_shortcode() {
        if (class_exists('Jetpack') && method_exists('Jetpack', 'get_active_modules') && in_array('sharedaddy', Jetpack::get_active_modules()))
            return sharing_display();
    }
}
