codeigniter array session issue after move site one server(godaddy) to another server(bluehost)

Question

There is issue in session. This is my array.

print_r($this->session->userdata("user_data"));

       Array
         (
           [useremail] => myid@gmail.com
           [user_id] => 1
           [is_login] => 1
          )

I want to get the useremail . so I am writing this code.

         print_r($this->session->userdata("user_data")['useremail']);

It gives the error . Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '['

If I am writing the code like this :

$dataval = $this->session->userdata("user_data");

 print_r($dataval['useremail']);

Then it it working fine .

Please help me what is issue ?

Answer 1

It is because you (probably) moved from newer php version (5.4+) to older version (5.2). Accessing array items directly by calling function name is only available on php 5.4 and newer: array dereferencing .

Only solution is to use temporary variable (like your $dataval ). Or you can switch to newere php version, if the bluehost allows it.
