 * Is there anywhere in this plugin that lets you know the CURRENT version of PHP
   that is running on the site into which it is installed?
 * Thanks!

 * I wanted to use this plugin to check my website before updating to php7. While
   I was looking how to do this I saw there was updates to both WordPress & DesktopServer
   so I went ahead and installed both these. I found to my delight that I now had
   php7.1 installed and that there were no issues with the operation of the website.
   Consequently I don’t need to run the Compatibility Checker and this topic can
   be closed.

 * [@jelnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jelnet/) – In CPanel look for either“
   PHP COnfiguration” or “Select PHP Version” and the screen that loads should indicate
   the version of PHP that is currently running on your installation. It will also
   give you the ability to update if so desired.
