I get this error no matter what I do to try to activate the plugin...
Site error: the file /hsphere/local/home/c293632/chriseggleston.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-pdf-stamper/wp_pdf_stamp1.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the site administrator.
I have installed iconCube and I have tried to activate this on 3 different sites with 3 different hosting accounts
Any help would be appreciated!
THanks
Hi, Can you please install the minimum requirements plugin and let us know if there is a "Checkmark" or "X" next to the IonCube requirement.
You can find all the information for this here:

ok thanks for the help having that plugin to check is very helpful!! But I have fixed the problem!
here is what I had to do, I had to create a php5.ini file in my root directory and add these lines of code there...
[Zend]
zend_extension=/your-absolutepath/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so
Replacing 'your-absolutepath' with the hosting accounts actual absolutepath (noted for anyone that finds this thread and needs help with the same problem)
Originally I tried adding those lines of code to the php.ini file which did not work.
I am glad you got this working and thank you for posting your fix. Each server configuration is different so sometimes small tweaks are needed.
We have a minimum requirement checker plugin for the PDF stamper plugin that you can find on the product description page. Here is the link if you missed it:
You shouldn't have to do anything manually for Ioncube. Please contact your hosting and see if they will install it for you if your server do not have it installed already (most web hosting companies will install it for you as it's a popular decoder)
Hi.
Still waiting to hear back from my site host regarding intalling IonCube. I'm curious if it might be associated with php5? The site is currently running php4 and when I attempted to upgrade I lost some functionality in other areas of the site (there's a members area that was built years back by another gent and it goes "kaboom" when I try to switch to php5).
So... can IonCube be installed on php4? And if not, do I need IonCube to run the plugin, or simply for installation?
Thanks! (and sorry for the long post)
Ioncube can be installed on both PHP4 or PHP5. As soon as Ioncube is installed on your server the plugin should work.
This is my personal opinion regarding PHP4... you really should consider upgrading to PHP5 due to the many security bugs that have been fixed in PHP5 (you should always try to use the latest when it comes to your server's security). Remember, you can't freeze time and stay back dated forever so the sooner you do it the less hassle you will have.
Hi,
I have read all the posts, tried some tweaks (all failed), and then installed the min_require_checker:
Minimum Requirement Checker v1.0
Summary
IonCube Decoder Present (this has a red X)
CURL Library Present (this has a green check)
PHP Version 5.2.14
My server uses WP 3.01
WP Stamper installed okay, but when activated still produces the following error:
"Site error: the file /homepages/31/d110419763/htdocs/newworldview/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-pdf-stamper/wp_pdf_stamp1.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the site administrator."
So, I called my ISP, and they helped me install the proper ionCube PHP loader zipfile for their server. Now, when I run “info.php” in my root directory, I get the following:
“This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine:
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies
with the ionCube PHP Loader v3.3.20, Copyright (c) 2002-2010, by ionCube Ltd.”
They had me add a php.ini file (not php5.ini as someone posted earlier, I tried changing the name to no avail) to my /wordpress/ directory which is not the root directory (it’s a prototype, so it’s installed in a subdirectory and I have a .htaccess file in the subdirectory protecting the subdirectory while we prototype).
The php.ini file my webhost provided has two lines (I don't believe the [zend] line used in the above php5.ini example is a problem or is it?):
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
zend_extension=/homepages/31/d110419763/htdocs/newworldview/wordpress/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so
The path name is correct to the correct file in the correct directory.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
