I am not 100% sure why the line of code isn't working, could be a PHP version issue. But I made the following change to the script now, so let me know if it works better that way: (instead of the one line that was causing the trouble, there are now two lines) <code> $subscriber_count_data = poll_subscriber_count(); $today_number = $subscriber_count_data["feed_count"]; </code> Hmm... Maybe I should also include the complete source code as a downloadable attachment... Good question! I am not 100% sure why the line of code isn’t working, could be a PHP version issue.
