Common Installation Issues

"Failed opening required [...]/vendor/autoload_packages.php"

This error occurs when the required vendor files are missing. This typically happens when:

You've downloaded the repository directly from GitHub without using a release package
The composer dependencies haven't been installed

Solution: Use the pre-packaged release from the Releases page or run composer install in the plugin directory.

"Cannot declare class ComposerAutoloaderInitWPUltimoDependencies, because the name is already in use"

This error usually occurs when updating from an older version of WP Ultimo or when multiple versions of the plugin are installed.

Solution: Deactivate and remove any older versions of WP Ultimo or WP Multisite WaaS before activating the new version.

"Class 'WP_Ultimo\Database\Sites\Site_Query' not found"

This error can occur if the plugin's autoloader isn't properly loading all the necessary classes.

Solution: Use the pre-packaged release from the Releases page which includes all required files.
