When I run this, it works: $content = get_content(); echo $content['content']; but when I run this echo get_content()['content']; I get Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ',' or ';'

Is there a way around this? I can provide the actual get_content() function if that is necessary but thought I'd start here.

Thanks!

    @SeaBass That's a big "Yikes!" there. You should not be using a version that old. I won't lecture you on that though. The flagged duplicate answers your question. Commented Dec 3, 2019 at 20:52
