Recently I encountered this question [Plugin development - parse error][1] and as it's probably the first of this kind, I would propose to delete it and not to accept similar questions in the future. Here is my thinking: - Typical for "have a bunch of code, does not work, debug my code and help me!" - Very unlikely somebody else is going to have the same issue, looks like more 1 one 1 help, which is not in the spirit of SE. - clearly not using an IDE and displaying bad coding practices. How do you feel about it? [1]: https://joomla.stackexchange.com/questions/570/plugin-development-parse-error
