@phanuelmutuma What is the version of PHP? It seems that PHP 8.1.x gives a Fatal error on several plugins.

I was able to work around this by temporarily adding a couple require statements in each of the WDS plugins:

I opened a PR for one of them here to provide an example: https://github.com/WebDevStudios/wds-headless-core/pull/12

Same error today with PHP 8.1.9, switching to PHP 7.4.30 resolved it
