Hello, im trying to install a recent posts plugin and when i put the recentposts.php in my 'plugins' folder and the languages.php file in 'admin' in the languages file it wont let me install and activate the plugin. It shows the attached error:


Is there anyway of fixing this?
Im on an shared hosting provider and i cannot modify the SQL is there an alternative?

Thanks

Replace:

    "name" => "latestposts",
    "title" => $db->escape_string($lang->settings_name),
    "disporder" => $rows+1,
    "isdefault" => 0
    );

with:

    $new_setting_group = array(
    "name" => "latestposts",
    "title" => $db->escape_string($lang->settings_name),
    "disporder" => $rows+1,
    "isdefault" => 0,
