Hi,

When trying to call

    <meta name="twitter:image0" content="[[++site_url]][[*flex_social_gallery_image_1:phpthumbsup=`w=600&h=600&zc=1&f=png`]]">

I'm getting the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function finfo_open() in /home/socialsi/public_html/ridershandbook.com/core/components/phpthumbsup/model/phpthumbsup/phpthumbsup.class.php on line 417

Having checked line 417 I see:

        $finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE);

Do any of you know what the problem is here?

Thanks in advance.

I believe this is a known issue, and will be addressed in the next version of phpThumbsUp. More info here: https://github.com/darkstardesign/phpThumbsUp/issues/16

The older I get, the faster I was.

Yeah that was it. I'm running php 5.3.x but it doesn't have fileinfo by default.

I installed the latest snapshot and it works perfectly.

Thanks
