 * Hello,
 * last night this plugin auto-updated, causing my website to crash with the following
   message:
    `Composer detected issues in your platform: Your Composer dependencies
   require a PHP version ">= 7.2.5".`
 * According to the documentation and readme file, this plugin requires 7.0.10.
 * Kind regards,
    Irian

 * Any reason why you are not on PHP 7.3 or higher?
 * And what version of PHP are you on?

 * We just released a 3.1.14 that now requires at least PHP 5.6
 * Cheers.

 * Hi Collins,
 * thank you for the swift reply and sorry for my late one!
 * I am on this version due to the hosting provider not being able to update at 
   the moment. The current version is 7.2.1.
 * Strange that the error is thrown, even though the required PhP version is still
   higher than 5.6.
 * Kind regards,
    Irian

 * That’s weird because the error message is “>= 5.6.0”. See [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-user-avatar/trunk/vendor/composer/platform_check.php#L8](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-user-avatar/trunk/vendor/composer/platform_check.php#L8)
 * Are you sure you updated the plugin to 3.1.15?
